Yup. I've been in academia and in private business. Academia pays terribly and expects a fuck-ton more work. I'm sure there's places where you can just sleaze by without doing much, but I never saw them. (Which isn't to say that all academic work is good work. I saw people who got far doing poor research, but they were also working very hard at it.)
