Pretty sure at my T15, only 1-2 people in the classes of 2025 and 2026 who interned as PMs received return offers.

I'd recommend getting what you need from the internship (still a reputable name) and use it for FT recruiting. In the meantime, you can keep shopping around for other internships and renege on Amazon if necessary.

Better than nothing but more likely than not you won’t get a return.

My colleagues
Just to put some intro
I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.
My long term goal is to go back to consulting more of a business advisor from a strategy perspective
Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic
