Every year, Corporate Counsel affiliate ALM Legal Intelligence releases a survey of general counsel pay, ranking the best compensated GCs in the country by their total cash compensation–a metric that incorporates salary, bonus and other non-equity pay.
For our 2017 General Counsel Compensation Survey, which covers pay information shared in 2016 proxy filings, we also took a close look at which industries are producing the biggest paychecks for in-house legal bosses. Some of the winning industries might come as a surprise, but they are definitely worth checking out for future career moves.
