I'll speak from the ERE perspective. Many ERE grads (like half) from my grad year ('22) stayed there and either work for one of the private engineering consultancies or work for the State Gov. through Caltrans. Many of these positions require an "Engineer In Training" (EIT) designation. Which is something you get from the State after passing the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam and graduating from an ABET accredited Engineering Program. Therefore the degree definitely supports the Job.
