As for experience or education , it for sure depends on the line of work but for the average job I'd say experience would count for more although you can plateau to a certain level....with that said many companies will pay for your education if they want you to get a certain degree to move up, if they like your work.
This. Experience is excellent, but when you get into some higher levels, you may find yourself plateauing with only an undergrad degree.

You'll also find the same type of plateau for an undergrad vs HS grad too in my opinion.
