This right here! Serious question, I’m 30 and a 10YOE project manager, no CS degree. How can I position myself to make 450k/yr with a 40hr work week?

I think you'll find engineers mostly don't want to become managers or executives, which is why we don't pursue MBAs or management positions.

If you do a survey, you will also find that literally 90 percent of MBA don’t become CEO.

Sundar Pichai, Parag Argawal(Twitter), Satya Nadella, Reed Hastings (Netflix), Travis Kalanik (Uber), Marisa Mayer (Yahoo), Tim Cook

They all started as engineer with a CS or engineering degree. Just saying you don’t need to jump directly into MBA and aim to be a CEO. You can still be an engineer, be good at what you do and become CEO.

Most CEO got to their positions not because of MBA but because they are a SME in their field.
