Does it matter whether you went to Harvard, Stanford, Booth or Wharton for MBA ?

How does it seem to reflect in salaries?

I went to kellogg. At work they fuxing shove me into a locker everyday. Yesterday someone ate my lunch and it wasn’t even 10am. So yeah, it matters.

don’t kellogg only make breakfast stuffs

doesn’t affect salary directly but indirectly might as access to jobs may lean toward 1 school or another depending on company

Aight imma keep it 100 w you. I did Harvard undergrad and NW masters, not Kellogg tho….Booth optically isn’t quite in the same tier to the layman, but in certain highly technical industries it might be more advantageous to have that degree. To some, Harvard /Stanford/Wharton grads only know how to talk money or sell entrepreneurship snake oil. Now I know the reality is somewhere in the middle but location is also key. Booth holds more weight in Chicago and the Midwest, but everywhere else the other 3 will likely outrank it and I would imagine internationally The ivies still have a bit more clout. On the West coast Stanford obv is more recognizable. I would also imagine salaries are reflective of hiring location with the coasts being higher paying. So someone that went to Stanford and works in Ann Arbor or Indianapolis will probs make less than a Wharton grad that goes to NYC

My MBA definitely opened doors but not at salary levels, more so with big companies who like the brand (MIT) so gave bigger consideration to those candidates.

I’m in my 4th year at a small plaintiffs’ firm. Past two years I’ve received meager raises (5k) and terrible bonuses (3k). My boss prides himself on allowing me to gain experience so I have more courtroom experience than most attorneys with twice the experience. As I’ve applied for other firms, I’ve been denied interviews based on how my boss is perceived in the community. I’ve gathered professional references from opposing attorneys and other attorneys we work with but still can’t land. Help
