Associate (post MBA role). I like the firm and would like to try for partner. Would MBA help? I would come back as my current role and lose two years of income.

My 2 cents.
I went to a tier 2 undergrad. So even if I stayed to partner, when I’m selling work I won’t carry as much weight.
Similarly, my network won’t be as strong for selling work
As an individual, I’m excited for the opportunity to spend 2 Years with some of the smartest business minds in the world, and it will be an incredible experience I’ll always look back on with fondness

Literally in the exact same position at my firm. Can’t figure out if a sponsored MBA at H/S/W is worth 2 years of lost income if we come back at the same salary.

I thought McKinsey eliminated pre-MBA Associate titles in North America and that all BAs are tiered and skip straight to Engagement Manager with no MBA within 2-5 years?

Apologies if you’re not from North America - not sure if a regional transfer post MBA would change the trajectory of your career at McK and make the choice more clear for you
