Is it worth it to pursue a specialty in Pediatrics? What are some of the most worthwhile specialties?

I know that I want to pursue a career in the medical field, specializing in pediatrics. I am an incoming college freshman planning to major in Biology and take on the pre-med route. I want to try to explore just general pediatrics for now but I'm curious what it's like studying something specific, how job finding or residency or shadowing is in a particular pediatric field, what patient care looks like, what kind of research is done (if any at all), or how pursuing it is like in general. I know there are also salary differences based on the specialty but I'm more curious as to what experiences can come with different specialties vs. what it's like in general pediatrics. I also want to hear some of the best experiences some people have had doing specialties and how satisfactory they are career-wise
