Questions to ask the employer

Is $430,000 base salary only, or expected total compensation including bonus and productivity?
How is the productivity component calculated (wRVU rate, threshold, reconciliation cadence), and what did physicians here actually earn from it last year?
Is the $100,000 signing bonus subject to repayment or clawback, and over what commitment period?
How is the $50,000 loan repayment structured — forgiven over time, contingent on service years, or paid up front?
What is the call schedule, and is call compensated separately or built into the base?
How many weeks of PTO and CME time are included, and is unused time paid out?
