<p>My dad works in the CS industry, and he’s constantly interviewing people for positions on his team. He told that what he (and most other employers) look for in an applicant isn’t their school or what major they did. He looks at volunteering, research, and internships. He asks the applicant about those things to see if he understands what his role was as well as the big picture. The knowledge and the experience of the applicant are much more important to him than whether they majored in CS (impacted) or something like Applied Mathematics (not impacted). That transfers to all kinds of industry, not just computers.</p>
<p>You’ll be able to do just as well in the field if you take initiative and work at it. I’m sure that there are many Mathematics-CS majors who understand the field better than EECS majors and vice versa. It depends mostly on you.</p>
