Feb 10, 2013 at 22:28 comment added blackace @Pedro I suggested because "It's clear they don't want to invest time in doing any serious follow-up on their side". I agree that this could happen if the relation is not managed and negotiated well. But the up side is also significant as i experienced. In my case it was with the world lead author in the field and yes he took some credit for it but always mentioned me. I have got four papers out of working with him so far (and we still going) all in the fields top journals that i could publish and i think this had to do with the fact that i was publishing with him...
Feb 10, 2013 at 12:28 comment added Pedro This can be a bit tricky... The joint paper may just as well look like the original author extending his/her own work, with you as just a subordinate co-author. The question you have to ask yourself is: Will this be seen as my own work/contribution? This is the question that hiring/grant committees will be asking too. If it is not clear that it's your own work, e.g. the other author is more senior and still active in the field, and/or he/she will present the joint work at conferences and talks too, then stay away from it.
