Career shift to an advisory role with Big 4

16 plus years of experience with a one year MBA from India. 11 plus years of post MBA experience in IT Consulting as Business Analyst, Project Management, Product and Consultant for a variety of consultant roles. I am interested in getting back to school (a decent online MBA) and take up advisory roles in risk & finance jobs at Big 4. What are my recommendations please. What online schools i should target. What salaries and roles i should expect post MBA work. Please advise.
