Veterans of consultanting need your help!

Should I do an MBA OR NOT?

I did my Btech from a tier 1 private school, joined EY India then switched to Accenture Strategy TS&A. My CCTC is 26 LPA and YoE is 3.5. I am good with people and understand technology very well, which i think makes me good at my job.

I want to continue in consulting as it suits me, but what I understand is that most people here have MBA degree and after a point there is a pay gap between MBA and non MBA.

Please help.
TIA

Stick it out for 1-2 years. Get an MBA from Europe or USA. Indian B Schools will not give you a good platform any longer. You are already at the median salary of top B schools.

Probably not, unless you want to move to MBB. You could look at theINSEAD program that Accenture offers
