I work at an 800 year old institution. I have been here for 20 years. My wife works here too.
Salary isn't great in global terms, but puts us within the top 20% national household incomes. Enough no not really care about money.
We work 35 hours per week, pretty flexible schedule, about half from home and have more vacation days than we know what to do with.
The work is a bit monotonous and the office politics terrible, to the point of giving us depressing "golden cage" feelings sometimes, but when we take a peek outside, it doesn't look better than what we have. So we'll probably stay for the next 20 years.
