Ditto on the PHD being worthless in industry or management, with an exception for if you want to do industrial research. I worked for a steel company for a summer and had a chance to speak with the President/founder a few times, and he said the only difference between a PHD and a BS when he was hiring was he’d end up paying the PHD a couple thousand more to start, and after a couple years they’d be in the same place. What you get in a PHD program just isn’t that useful in industry in general.
