I'm a software engineer with 4 yrs exp. Thinking of doing MBA to switch to finance/consulting. Is it worth the investment? How's the job scene for MBA grads in 2025?

Only Worthit, if done from top 7 BSchools.

MBA is overrated. In tech you can earn same money without 2 yr career break

Only worth it if you get into top IIMs. Otherwise ROI is questionable

I did MBA after 5 yrs in tech. Totally worth it. Opened up many new opportunities

Why MBA bro? Learn finance/business on your own and switch internally in your company
