Grades in graduate school tend to be a bit inflated, so anything sub-3.7 in a Masters program would probably give pause (C's are rarely given in grad school and basically are equivalent to D/F's in undergrad, while B's in grad school are the equivalent of C's in undergrad). The MS GPA shouldn't matter much at all though for industry and would only be important if you plan to apply to PhD programs later.
