Passing FE as an electrician

I’m currently an apprentice electrician working toward my license, and I’ve started studying for the Electrical FE. I’ve already gone through a lot of the base math (calculus, diff eq, linear algebra) and am getting into topics like electromagnetism and the more electrical-specific material.

I’m wondering whether passing the FE could realistically open doors into electrical engineering or engineering-adjacent jobs?

Do employers care about FE outside PE track roles?

Edit, for context I live in the Chicago greater area
