Dear Moderators,
Thanks for this excellent forum.
Here is my situation: I have been working in the same Lab. where I got my first postdoc position for around 5 years now. The initial appointment was for 2 years only. But from the first postdoc we developed an ambitious project that led me to accept staying for 3 more years (a kind of second postdoc). In terms of results, things are going just fine and more good publications will appear eventually from this research. The job contract will end on december next year...
How does it look in the CV to have stayed for so long in the same Lab.? What are the pros and cons of this situation?
Thanks for your time.
Robert
