I’m job hunting in Los Angeles, looking at a variety of titles (HRBP, Sr. HRBP, Manager, Sr. Manager, Director). I have 8 YOE and my SHRM-SCP. I reached my report limit on payscale.com, so I used a variety of other sites to price the roles (BLS, salary.com, Glassdoor, LinkedIn, Robert Half). The problem I’m having is the huge inconsistencies between sources (there are $40k differences between some of the identified medians). (Continued…)

Do it. Consulting is miserable. Future physician salaries will be lower, but definitely not worse than consulting.
Everyone is leaving medicine. Go back to leverage the degree in business, not practice. It’s even more mind-numbing than consulting with very little career flexibility outside of your chosen board certification
Would highly recommend informational interviews with those in the field. Emergency room medicine is mostly projectile vomiting, ear aches, the boomeranging homeless population, and a few stab/gunshot wounds thrown in (assuming you’re in a city). As an intern and resident you’re lucky to take home $75k a year and sleep once every 5 days. Medicine is something you really have to love, it’s a calling. Those who used to do it for the money and prestige are now all in tech. That’s why half of all startup founders have god complexes.
Which as of now is a “moderately” competitive specialty in terms of matching and pay ($350k average). Does anyone have friends or family members in the field? What’s the outlook? I feel it would be my passion, but I want to be sure I’m not going in blind.
Do you know some of the economics behind why their salaries will be pushed down?
Mid level creep.
The training is long and with the debt and opportunity cost you won't be further ahead financially. The hours and stress of work is higher than anything I've faced in consulting. It's a good job for many people but it's not a good fit for a lot of people. There's a reason burnout is so high. It's hard to know if the job is right for you until you're deep in the trenches which will take years.
I lived with a few roommates who were residents in emergency medicine. In some ways, the quality of life is awesome. (E.g. not on call/leave work at the door). They would pull double shifts and be able to take vacations for weeks on end. That said, they sometimes had to do graveyard shifts, which is fine if you can live with changing sleep patterns.
In many ways I envied them - especially when I couldn't even use vacation days because of project constraints.
If you care about money and don't care about location, you may be able to negotiate an even higher salary by doing locum tenens coverage.
