What are the gains?
Everyone I know with PhDs don’t really get paid more for doing the same job(s) I do.
And some are in research so it’s just a constant stress of continuing to get funding and stuff.

A PhD in engineering oriented industries will not get you more money unless you hit the jackpot (did some early LLM stuff for example).
You just gotta love the research.

Well, if they are doing the same jobs you are, then they aren’t reaping any of the benefits.
They should be able to do some jobs that you aren’t prepared for. Personally, I would say anybody not to do one unless they have an specific job in mind… Most people I know that did one while working are quite happy with the result.
