I'm a PhD in industry, and interview many candidates. Their attitudes and expectations are irrelevant to me. I only try to answer one question when interviewing: can they actually program a computer to do something non-trivial?

I've seen a lot of PhDs whose answer is "no." They didn't build that skill, and they do poorly in interviews. They may have weaker skill than they did before they started their research. All the other knowledge they have is irrelevant if they can't express it in code for a computer to run.

It's not like there aren't a lot of CS PhDs in industry, they're usually just quiet about it.
