Those who changed careers to IB using MBA, was the financial sacrifice (i.e debt load) worth it in the long run and how many years did it take to pay debt with IB Associate salary?

Given that street pay is well-known and MBA tuition is also well-known, I feel like you should be able to come to this conclusion on your own? Not trying to be snarky. But this is also a very personal question as you could have two different opinions with the same set of facts.

Ability and time to repay debt is also very dependent on your personal financial situation.

100% what GE said, it depends on salary pre-MBA, how much debt you are taking on, and your general financial situation. I would argue that if your primary financial goal post-MBA is to pay down debt you could do it within 2 years of graduating, but you need to crunch your numbers.

Got a temp offer for less than a year without promise of turning into full-time. Wanted to know what ppl think about temp jobs (looks bad on resume if I don't turn full-time later within the company?) and what comp should look like (e.g. 1.2× of regular comp?).

Got another perm offer in a different industry for similar salary, but I might have to relocate and I'm concerned the work may involve translation instead of pure legal work.

I am currently a biomedical engineer at @U.S. Food and Drug Administration with over two years of experience.

How long did it take you to be promoted to the next pay grade? What do you think contributed the most to that salary increase? If you transitioned into the private sector, what drove you to make this decision? Thanks!

Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.

Hey everyone, I got a call from Deloitte recruiting on Wednesday of last week discussing salary requirements and location. They told me that the team really liked me and that they were going to work on an offer. I got a call on Friday saying one group has approved the offer but they are waiting on others. I haven’t heard much since then. Should I be worried? How much longer will I have to wait?
