Pro: You don’t have to work for 30 year olds who think they know what they are doing when they really don’t yet. You don’t have to spend half of your 20s at a Hilton Garden Inn.

Con: If you can make it through a few rounds of promotions, the network gained at MBB has been worth more than my MBA later on in my career.

Hilton garden inn 😂 I felt that one in my soul

great reminder of things I don’t miss from travel hahaha

Go for the best brand if you want to do MBA. Like Intel or Cisco Corp Dev over ZS Associate OR Oliver Wyman over any crappy industry Corp Dev roles.
