I don't have a degree and it has not mattered in a long time. On an interview, I don't even get enough time to get into all my professional experience at this point.
Of course, I am not applying for something that would need a PhD in chemical engineering.
My experience has been that most companies are pretty good at identifying who the smart people are and giving them more responsibility. If anything, I would consider a business or psychology degree a huge red flag if I was doing the hiring.
I should add though that it is hard to compare for myself because without a degree I have always known I had to do that much more networking. Doesn't matter what degree you have if I make friends with the hiring manager.
