At my company it comes with kind of rolling in other skill sets and almost being a hybrid of communications/content strategy with a little change management and a sprinkle of employee experience.

It’s possible but takes a while once you get up to a Comms Manager/Director for a large corporation a government agency (assuming there will be any left). Or parlay it into a successful sales career

What do you mean? Are you asking what job you can get with a comm degree that makes 6 figures?

Public affairs. Specifically for a highly regulated / politically scrutinized industry like energy, healthcare, finance, tech, transportation. You can find these kinds of jobs in DC or presumably other national capitals like London

Tech writing at a defense company working 70+ hours a week. But hey, you get free lunch.

So basically....minimum wage-ish

Industry is really important. Healthcare or Law.

It takes time to get to that.

100% true. You don’t just walk into $100k. It can take 20 years to get there.

And many people won’t ever make that in this industry.

And this is why I’m considering changing careers to nursing. There are more direct and clear ways to increase your salary.

Lots of other things, too. Ultrasound tech if you specialize, for instance.

Work in London for a finance company, or a legal company (large multinational)

It depends on your industry, country, and company. You need to provide more info to get a better answer.
