Other than Big Law partner, what jobs in this area pay $500k+?

Can the Physician recruiter start an AMA? I'm curious as a future doctor considering peds but worried about the salaries.

Only GCs for large companies make in this range and the competition for those jobs is insane.

Yes, competition for these jobs is insane but GCs for large companies typically make 7 figures, not $500k.

You should be. The only thing that really pays well in medicine is procedures, and most pediatricians do everything in their power not to do procedures on kids.

If you really want to do it, you have a few options:
1). Set up a private practice. Hire a bunch of mid levels that bill as you. Pay them half of what you get paid. Manage the business and do very little medicine.
2). Move to a rural area where there is additional government incentive for Medicaid patients and be on call 24/7 as the only pediatrician in town. You will get amazing experience doing this because there will be no specialists for you to refer to.
3). Do some kind of procedure on the side: allergy testing, wart removal, etc. This reimburses better than catching cancer (and much better than ruling out cancer and savings child from unnecessary testing).
4). Marry someone else from your Med school or residency who is going into a more lucrative specialty.

VP level would get you to around that.

Really? Base salary or with bonus? Does that include a non-tech VP?

Twenty years back, I dropped out as an engineering student. My parents went nuts as I have up a full ride scholarship. After year 2 in college I saw formal education as a trap, and detergent to progress. Today, I’m a GC building speciality commercial buildings. Last year I earned $5m net profit (after paying myself a $1.2m comp). The fastest and most gratifying way to become independently wealthy is to be an owner.

Suddenly I have a cynical theory as to why everyone's kid has food allergies these days...

(I have a mild one myself, before the allergy moms jump on me. I also have a dark sense of humor!)

I work in fintech and my Director level roles I’m currently interviewing for are about 450 total comp, so half stock and half salary. That’s getting closer to you.
