I started this MSCS (online version), passed 2 courses (out of 10) but an opportunity came up and decided to leave it.
Overall, I'd say it opened some doors (getting noticed more on LinkedIn). I was able to switch careers (coming from Telecom Engineering), went to work for a big company, and then for a startup.
I had a MS (Telecom Engineering) before getting into Georgia Tech so I don't feel like I'm missing that badge. Companies still care for credentials though.
