I've been doing some basic science research for a couple of months now. I'm getting a paper published in a small journal as a 4th author.
On one hand, I want to leave because I feel like I'm doing a lot of work but not getting what I expected. But on the other hand, I wonder if I have too much expectations.
Should I leave this place? If I do, I'm kind of worried that I'll be burning a bridge and may not get listed as an author on two coming papers (again probably in a small journal as an even lower author). Plus, I wonder if residency directors will see me as a flake or not having committment - maybe that's worse than not. Does the place where you're listed as an author really count all that much to the RD or do they just care about your research
