A few went the MBA route. A bunch just ended up in random business / project management in power generation, retail, other fields. Law. Some landed in tech. If you are smart enough to be an engineer, you are smart enough to go make 1-2x more money w/ 1000x less risk than stamping

I work in tech. I make about 25% more. I work 10-20 hours less a week. There is zero stress. I have no liability anymore (I used to design mines, tailings dams, fix landslides above highways). It's not cut-throat race to the bottom billable hour competitive bid engineering.
