Math is one of the least immediately useful degrees for getting a job, but probably the most useful skillset to have in the workplace.
I'm not sure what you do for a living, but even in the non-actuarial segments of my industry, it's a solid degree for recruiting purposes.
You can teach a mathematician simple business concepts, but you can't teach someone with a BA in econ advanced math ideas.
Hey, I did just fine, and I have a BBA in Econ. Arguably easier than a BA. I majored in math for a while, though, until it occurred to me that I liked my economics courses better.
I'm sure CERN isn't coming to me for help any time soon, though.
