This type of asymmetry leads to far too much non-merit-based selections and a return to country club “fit” as paramount. This is overwhelmingly so in the humanities but the bizarre supply/demand problem is rarely addressed head-on.
I can't recommend anyone to try to work in academia. Terrible pay, hostile working environment for just about anyone who has a working brain, almost impossible to get.
Why would anyone want to be there? #cultofeducationhttps://twitter.com/wouterkool/status/1108843891506274304 …

Random theory: the majority of ppl cannot choose if they work w/super smart ppl... I think the appeal of being in the academia bubble of unique insightful people makes many ppl put up w/low pay, politics...pic.twitter.com/IM9XJze7uZ

For many. But for some it is work for life with above average pay and many perks.

If this isn’t a sign it’s a bubble, I don’t know what is. Is working in the private sector that bad??
