> how many of the top engineers at FAANG are PhDs.
Not that many, but its interesting how many are from "elite" universities. I'm in a research org for a FAANG and we often get to see all the handwringing about how we can't recruit more of people type x.
Well, if you only hire from MIT, Stanford, Oxford etc, then they are all going to look the same.
For those outside the research org, its a bit better, but its still the most uneven place I've worked.
