Agree with BCG1 - I did a MPH in Healthcare Mgmt but had a lot of courses in parallel with MBA students, and definitely feel the MBA is a lot more valuable both in content learned and network built. You may be particularly interested in a dual MBA/MPH program or a MBA with a focus on healthcare.

Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior.

There are so many major issues in this company that I don’t know if I want to subject my mental health to this degree of toxicity. I just don’t know how to move forward from here.
