Hi Fishes,
I am going to switch for the first time.
If anyone can tell me it will be quite helpful that how to ask for the CTC in such a way that if i ask for certain range and its high and they don't want to give it to me as per my current CTC. atleast I will get an offer letter so that i can negotiate with other companies on top of that. Currently I don't have any offer letter in hand. Tata Consultancy Accenture Infosys Deloitte Wipro

Strategy consulting firms are known to be notoriously elitist. So, an MBA from a Tier-1 B-school is a bare minimum. When you deal with C-level executives of a client, considering the billing rates they charge, they nees someone who has been near perfect throughout his/her entire life.
MBA isn't always necessary to reach a top position at a firm, though it gives a headstart to one's career in the initial stages. Your chances mostly depend on your performance, your overall perception amongst the management and a bit of luck.

Check linkedin. In all MBB level firms, IITans do the same job as mbas. It's not mandatory to do mba. Also, if u do mba it has to be from abc, xl, Isb to get into MBB else go foreign mba.
If u want high salary then amazon pays 50-60lakhs package nowadays. No mba needed for that. Mba in india is overhyped just like Bollywood movies. More showoff than actual content.
Also, not even 50% of ABC get into MBB. Many join ecomm, startups, fintech, faang nowadays. Many go for 2nd masters abroad bcz indian mba is just theory and people do mba as a fresher. After working post mba they realise, that study was useless.
The latest skills are in analytics, AI etc. It's not taught extensively in mba. Mba teaches u generic stuff like OBHR, marketing, macro, Financial modelling, SCM, IT systems etc. My good friend from IIMk did not even know how to use vlookup n I did not know how to create pivot post mba in 1st job. The MC job in big 4 where majority of IIM end up does not need a useless 25lakh mba from IIM.

An MBA’s utility depends on your current skills, but an MBA from a tier-1 B-school is typically very useful.
It gives you a solid jump in your career, especially if you’re not from an IIT/NIT/ BITS etc.
(Not counting softer benefits like networking, perspective etc.)
For MBB- they typically need tier -1 MBAs; they do hire industry experts, but they are generally from non-IT backgrounds, and are hired once they have a lot of experience.

If you aspire to be a top guy in a big company, either you founded the company, or it's your family business or you have a mba from a tier 1 college. That's the reality of current corporate.
