1. In terms of income, research assistants are poorly paid, and most of them are temporary workers. The treatment standards formulated by various universities and research institutes are basically formulated internally. Most research assistants are paid from the labor costs in the project. The labor cost of a research group directly determines the treatment of research assistants. A few units bear part of the salary and the research group bears the other part. Generally speaking, the welfare benefits are relatively general.
2. As far as career development is concerned, there is little room for promotion, and the post assessment and promotion channels for scientific research assistants are not perfect and mature. In a working environment where doctors and postdocs are everywhere, it is difficult to get promoted and promoted. Even if some units have formulated assessment standards, most of them use papers as assessment standards. Such an assessment system is more difficult for scientific research assistants who are engaged in auxiliary positions.
