Thinking about making a switch to MBA from Software Engineering. Is there still a market for them? Or am I just wasting my time.

    I've done it and moved from engineering to product management. It was worth it and doubled salary. I got hire 6 months after graduation.

    If you have no real skills, MBA is a good way to get a piece of paper used for validation. Many job role will pay more for that piece of paper. But generally, top tier roles don't give a shit.

    don't do it, it's absolutely fucking useless. Have some MBA friends and it's been taking some of them a long time to get a job. Also, insane working hours for others who did manage to find jobs.

    I differ with my opinion, it depends where you want to be after an MBA, in non-tech roles such as marketing, sales or finance? then probably worth it. I can't speak for the market for these roles. but if you are looking to do an MBA, to get into tech management roles then probably not worth it.
