I'm currently a property accountant with an MBA in finance. I desire to earn more income considering my credentials and experience. I currently earn 93k and striving to get to 150 or even 200 to be able to live the way I want to live, pay for good schooling for my children, eat organic, travel etc. Even to buy a nice house in a great neighborhood is at lease a million. I'm looking for salary comparisons and recommendations to reach my financial goals

The answer to this question is an MBA to work in accounting is useless. I have an MS in accounting and even that is useless. If you want to stay in accounting for the long term you just need a CPA. You are better off taking the extra 30 credits at a community college than spending extra money on a MS in accounting. A masters level degree in according doesn’t make sense from an ROI perspective unless you have a full ride scholarship or an employer is paying for it.

If you want to exit accounting, then an MBA from target schools are worth it. Nom target MBAs are most likely a waste of time and money.

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?
