Business schools except for a few Economics groups are very different. They hire based on topics not talents. The tenure standard is much lower. For example see Michael Power as a recent case. Only MIT would count that as a good placement but they're known to be sketchy when computing placement statistics.

Agreed. There's a reason no one bothers looking at how the non-econ market plays out each year or who's going to a Strategy group somewhere. Of course unless it's MIT counting its own students, then people may notice.
If you care about who makes how much money, be envious of the guys who place on Wall Street. Oh and for that matter you don't need a PhD for that either.
