Doctoral Degrees in Linguistics

So I've been reading a lot about PhD Degrees in Humanities (Specifically anything French related), and the overwhelming consensus from professors and articles have been similar to this article: " Graduate School in the Humanities: Just Don't Go". But, while I am interested in French, I am actually much more interested in the Linguistics side of things.

This is probably a stupid question, but is Linguistics lumped in with "Humanities", and does anyone know what the job market is like for doctoral degree holders in linguistics- in and outside of academia?

Any advice, information, or resources would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
