Anyone with an MBA on here? Would love to hear how it helped you in your career growth. Was it worth the time investment? My agency will cover the cost.

Advanced degrees will only help you and if you can do it debt free I’d say why not - what does the agency get in return?

I have a masters and I don't think I would get to where I am now, as quickly as I did, without it. That being said, I wouldn't go back for it after being at an agency unless I didn't feel my current options were fulfilling or I wanted to change careers.

I need advice. I moved into product management under a year ago to an early stage startup. The first few months went well, but the last 5 have been chaotic. It feels like we’re becoming more sales led, there are too many pivots (I expected some) our roadmap is becoming influenced by sales/ceo. Essentially, we’re trying to do much. It’s happening so much I’m starting to lose confidence in the company/strategy. It’s also causing me anxiety…

Hi all 🙂👋🏻 Apologies for such a late post. I have an offer of 18 CTC(1L joining bonus) from Larsen & Toubro Infotech & 12.5 fixed from IBM .
My joining in both are in around May last week. Tomorrow my IBM pre onboarding HR will connect with me. Should I ask for a counter offer tomorrow itself?
Or should I ask 2 weeks before joining?
Many told me that companies revise CTC when the joining date is near, else they show less interest. So should I go for it now itself?
Appreciate ur inputs🙂
