I am a 30 year old consultant (industry role would be Solutions Architect) making a base of $150k and a bonus of 20%. I live in Atlanta and am considering the Emory part time MBA for the following reason: When I apply to Director or Sr. Director roles in 8-10 years I want that MBA box check marked. I know Emory isn’t the best program but I think it’ll at least give me a competitive edge over not having one at all. Looking for thoughts- goal is exiting to a tech companies like Google, Salesforce

I don’t think google cares about MBA one bit outside of hiring L4 MBAs out of biz school into product management roles.

Of course not. It’s neither differentiates you nor hurts you.

Do you think your current compensation is competitive in the current market and taking into consideration the inflation rate?

No. Because I’m not an integrative consultant. I don’t think it’s a bad comp tho.

Emory isn't strong enough to helpyour career
