Hey! I'm wondering what is your opinion on MBAs... I was promoted to consultant in December, and I'm a bit lost on what to do next. I would like to get to the management level in my company, but not senior manager, as I have no interest in sales. I would like to do an MBA, but the current market situation puts me off a bit. But the reality is, realistically, I would only join a school in 2 years (1 if I'm able to ace the gmats quick enough) and then only finish in 3-4 years from now...

What’re you thinking of doing post-mba?

I would like to shift to something like product management... I would like to also work in the US after doing an MBA in the US. I from Europe.

New MBA’s need to be locked up for their first six months after graduation. After that, they are an overhead!

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.
