I am currently training in one of the "top" 10 programs.
The training is solid. But I am sick with the environment... academic snobs, red tapes, hospital systems that are too big and too well-funded to change.In other words, it is not the right fit in terms of personality and culture. Yes, I am paying the price for ranking "name" over my true preference.
I do not want to end up in the same environment for fellowship if I can help it.
I don't care about getting an academic job in a top institution. I do care about getting a job in major cities like SF or NYC for family reasons.
Would my pedigree of training matter much in job search?
