Okay. Would MBA be okay?

Yes. Drop the current field and move into data science. This is where money is.

Try understanding what a data scientist/analyst does and ask yourself honestly whether you enjoy it or not. If you are looking toward management/leadership roles, growth after an MBA will be much better
