   Don’t understand why SM is ridiculous. He is not worse than the other profs who are hired recently because they have top 5s.

   According to Allen the clown you are a good economist if you have a top 5.

   Sm will soon have one...

   On the bath offer, there may be other reasons why he did not get an offer.

   SM is ridiculous. 1 paper published in 8 years, and even thinks he should be up for promotion..
   he's simply just not good enough, the R&R in Econometrica wouldn't have ever happen without his co-authors. people should stop just counting beans without putting the slightest attention on how those beans ended up there in the first place.
   The lecturer with an Econometrica R&R was not capable of getting an outside offer from Bath....juniors with no options just need to suck it up and work more

   I think the whole profession now understands that for senior role you look at the profile of research, past and pipeline. A top 5 is a nice part of that, but neither necessary nor sufficient to determine a strong (by non top US standards) researcher. A top 5 or even 2 as an RA with a big name needs to be treated with care. Look at the papers somebody places either as single author or with researchers junior to them self. A steady set of such papers in strong field journals and/or journals just below the top 5 is excellent by almost any yardstick.

   This thread has turned out to be mostly complaints by unproductive juniors who cannot fulfill the - very reasonable - criteria laid out by the HoD, and thus resort to whining here...

   Is that your takeaway from this thread?

   Cause mine was different.

   A mentally ill couple are sheiting on the department, and some cretin with fake PhD is the dean.

   The Econometrica is obviously nice, but with 2 seniors and next to nothing else 5 or 6 years out I doubt many places would think of this as an SL.

   he's simply just not good enough, the R&R in Econometrica wouldn't have ever happen without his co-authors. people should stop just counting beans without putting the slightest attention on how those beans ended up there in the first place.

    Kelsey, Balkenborg and others were profs chased out of exeter by threats of “performance” management.
