Is Non Top 25 MBA Programs (including online) worth it for pay bumps or to check the box for higher/managerial positions? What are the pros and cons? Thank you. TC:130k 4YOE #MBA #Consulting #Tech
UW Foster has great ROI and specializes in tech, and tier 2 consulting (pwc, deloitte). You can get a good bump
They only provide you educational value. Can also provide some resume vanity value. In general, MBA alone is not a job getter unless it is from a very high ranked university. Definitely no pay bumps. Even managerial positions don’t work that way. There are some focus certs from top universities that may be a good alternative for specific skills.
Did you get one? My MBA (top30)gave me everything- professional network in every tech company, friends, soft skills like presenting, collaboration, communication, business writing.. Also opened doors for my resume and I end up getting 3X TC
By top 30, you mean rank 21-30

In general, no but of course you will find spectacular person(s) in those schools. However, think about MBA in this sense (also similar to how college ranking works). The higher the ranking, the more “prestigious” and options you get as recruiters come on campus to network with you and you have an array of resources to help you prep for interviews. Many MBA goers are career switchers, say from tech into consulting or non-profit into investment banking. While it’s not necessarily fair, top companies still have to look at where they recruit to minimize risk. There is no better way to do that when the schools themselves had already help with the weaning process. Again, dont take what i say as people who go to a ranked 30 school is dumb or that there is no chance for them. The post is simply a generalized reaction to how MBAs work as it relates to potential career prospect.
