I’ve been a hiring IT and technical people for the last 20 years. I’ve hired a few writers, but not a lot - and never a philosophy grad.
I can say that in my experience writing is what used to seperate the college grad from the rest, regardless of the degree. That is less the case today. Sadly. A good writer is gold. That is sad, indeed. (I rather blame texting for a lot of the laziness with literacy [I won't mention public education, as I don't want to rant].)

“I rather blame texting for a lot of the laziness with literacy.”
That and lots of immigrants doing fine work to whom english is a second language. It’s something you have to practice. Like cursive writing.
