A French professor (eg CNRS researcher) is a civil servant, appointed for life, with substantial benefits such as pensions and absolute academic freedom. A postdoc in Norway has salary contingent on grants, limited to a few years, and is at the mercy of an advisor (a bad boss will destroy your career). Making a few thousand euros more per month as a postdoc in Norway is nothing in comparison with a lifetime appointment at CNRS. Competition for CNRS positions is as difficult as getting into a top tier faculty position in United States. |
