my current PhD buddy who I have the most insight on his path is in the hard sciences -- cancer research -- and he's been aiming for the private sector the whole time
but that is obviously much more available in the hard sciences than the social sciences
I'm in a biomedical science PhD program and maybe 20% of my class wants to go into academia, everybody else wants to go into industry. It's a pretty different world than PhD in social science programs
