Business roles in tech are underrated

Everyone wants to be a software eng in tech, but business roles are just as exciting! you shape strategy and drive revenue growth, work closely with leadership to solve big problems, have a direct impact on company direction. I’m a marketer and my fav part is getting to see the direct impact my input has on the bottom line ($$$s) and honestly I fucking lovvvve my job.

I have seen people first go for big 4 or other consulting and from there they usually shift to business roles in other companies.

So do companies ask for/ prefer candidate with a business degree like MBA despite you having 5+ yrs of experience - mix of tech + consulting. I understand that the client's experience is the key. But I feel there's more to it in the corporate landscape of things.

True. Even I’m thinking of leaving tech behind for a business role which entails founder’a office. How’s your pay though?
