Hi Fishes,
I want your valuable inputs. If we go for a full time MBA with 4 YOE as a developer, will that be a disadvantage at the B school during placements and all. Also will it be a good idea to do an MBA then?

Yes, Tier 4 Engineering = Tier 1 MBA pay

Thanks for the reply. But tier 4 engineering and tier 1 mba pay ? Seems like you mixed up some numbers 😅

Depends on
1. Which B school
2. What jobs you apply for

You obviously won’t get short lists for marketing based jobs. They prefer freshers.

Tech sales might be possible.
PM would be a realistic goal.

You’ll face some roadblocks in a 2-year MBA but with good grades you’ll be able to manage just fine.
ISB is a much better fit for people with >3 YOE.

3 YOE before MBA.
I wanted to go for a 2-year MBA, hence exited at that point. Most 2-year B schools have points for work ex and these points start going down after 3 YOE.

Think about 1 year PGPM from a good B School rather than 2 years course. Better option for your experience and in terms of ROI and opportunity cost.

I keep hearing that Booth’s MBA program is rigorous (maybe the most rigorous out of M7). That said, how much more work are students expected to do compared to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, etc.? I don’t know if this is an outdated opinion, considering a lot of MBAs are very demanding. Booth is personally my top choice for having a flexible curriculum & 2-3 days of classes. But I really want to know what to expect around the “rigorous” label. Does it mean I’ll be buried in coursework the other 2-3 days?

5 years post-MBA and all my classmates are VPs in industry or Principals in consulting/IB (some are even Partners/MDs already). I sat in the same classes with these folks for 2 years — probably outperformed some of them academically. Yet, here I am continuing to struggle with my student debt payments, hoping that “Uncle Joe” forgives 20% of it. I’ll never have that kind of earning potential because I didn’t come from the “right background” pre-MBA.
