Anecdotal, but when I left my last big law firm (to start my own company), I was making around 3/4 million dollars per year. None of my peers who left ever went to jobs that paid more--they all went "in house" for a lot less money and maybe some moonshot equity, but mainly they sought a less horrible lifestyle.
