Working in a pharmaceutical company and working in a pharmacy are two different career paths that require different skills and education. In general, working in a pharmaceutical company may offer a higher income, but this can vary depending on factors such as location, job position, and experience. If you're considering moving to the USA, it's important to research the job market and specific companies you're interested in to determine which path may be the best fit for you.

I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.
