All my acquaintances and friends with maths and theoretical physics/astrophysics PhDs are well employed and work e.g. in
- Nuclear technology
- Renewable energy
- Precision optics
- scientific publishing
- teaching and education
- finance (don't underestimate the # of physics phds in finance)
- automotive industry
For my wife who works for a leading scientific publisher, the physics phd was a job requirement because she needs to talk to top scientists all day and evaluate their projects without making a fool of herself.
