I would always say do NOT go back to university with the aim
of having an academic career. It was always tough to get a permanent job. It’s now perishingly difficult to impossible.
Do it because it will enhance your life or career in another way. Don’t do it expecting a lectureship at the other end

friend asked me for advice on returning to university and aiming for an academic career. it’s so hard to realistically portray for someone how unrealistic that is in 2026 without sounding incredibly bitter and pessimistic. but honestly who would advise someone that this a good career path?
