It is expected, at least where I'm from, that a PhD in an engineering discipline is going to go get a decent tech job. It is not by any means required, so it remains a personal choice and changed the nature or the jobs you'll be offered to a certain extent.
For me, my employability vastly improved when I graduated, and subsequently worked where I did (which was only unlocked because of my grad work).
Also I just love computer science. It's magic.

I'd presume that if the overall amount of PhDs severely drops, then the ones still pursuing them will be doing so because it's a clear win on the investment front after factoring in the personal expense of doing it. The same would clearly be true of MDs, some careers just have that requirement.
