Hi All, My sister has done Computer Science engineering Bachelor degree and has 5 years of work experience in India. She is applying for MBA at https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/programs/mba/full-time-mba/ and https://kelley.iu.edu/programs/full-time-mba/academics/majors-minors/marketing.html. Her overall goal is to get into Software Product management. Any suggestions if any of these MBA’s can open path in the desired space or if she is better of doing an MS in Comp engg. to further develop deeper Technology skills. Thanks

Hi everyone!
Debating between an offer from 200 employee company vs Zoom (the company).
The smaller company has good benefits, great wlb and a great culture per Glassdoor reviews. But its an HR software and not easy to sell.
Compensation is similar.
Never worked in a big company like zoom before, what are the pros, and the drawbacks?

Have a formal offer at Citi for 120K as an AVP in the NY office. Currently making 92K at my current role where I feel there’s not much room to grow anymore. Is this a fair offer? I currently WFH pretty much full time at my current role which has been amazing, but it seems like Citi would require me to be there 2-3 days in the office per week - and this is something I’m very hesitant about. Thoughts on how to approach this?

All of my MD friends make a ton but have you looked into the school/residency requirements?

What’s the comp like for both? What’s the wlb like?
What industry is it, and do you like that industry? Does either role align more with your long term goals?
Both are pretty equal. One in academia (MD), one in Consulting (VP).
Coach
Client MDs make more money and have less headaches dealing with internal BS relative to internal leaders who are glorified admins.

Ok

Internal-facing glorified admin work is where all the money is.

You’re right. Absolutely.
But say you get there and the delivery teams suck. That’s not something you can move the needle on without a hell of a lot of effort. Payoff is garbage too if you mess up, you get unceremoniously fired.
You know who doesn’t get fired? The guy doing the packaging or branding for a large portfolio.
It’s a hell of a lot easier to just do positioning or sales enablement for like $200k+ at an F10.
