My negative opinion based on experience working with the stereotype that fits your friend is they are only valuable in a massive company. 8/10 phd holders I have worked with couldn’t actually do hands on work. So where do people who just want to think, talk and write about work without being able to actually ship provide value on the order of $250/hr?

Yeah im not saying anything about value of work output, just the change in the market
They'll become lawyers, as the lord intended them to be.
