Psychiatrists definitely love their job, and their salary isn’t the only perk of it since they are among the top five physician groups claiming to be “very” and “extremely” happy at work. That’s probably the reason why only 38% of them said they are depressed and burned out. Even though their work hours are often negotiable, the average psychiatrist usually works 40 hours per week or even less.
