Deloitte BTA - Any pros to this program?
Are there any pros to this program?? I've read a lot of trash about it on these forums. I'm interested in it, but scared I might get stuck in a hole. I want a job where I can meet lots of people and be intellectually stimulated, not stuck behind a computer screen typing code all day. Thoughts?
Well BTAs don't code all day. Their work isn't interesting to me (mostly integrating SAP etc) but they do get considerable client interaction. S&O here is a better place to be IMO. The MBA placement for the tech sideisnt even close to as strong as the strategy side. But pay is comparable. If you like tech work, I wouldn't say it's a bad place to make a career. It will be tough to break out though.
they have really good benefits... if your a top performer they'll reimburse you for grad school / mba, stipend, and give you a promotion when you return... beats most places...
isn't that most consulting firms?
Is it possible to get an MBA in finance when work experience is BTA? My ultimate goal would be financial consulting, but I know my limits and my stats aren't incredibly impressive to get into finance right away. I just want my foot in the consulting door.
Yes. You'll probably have a harder time then someone at McKinsey or something, but BTA's definitely can get into good business schools. I've heard through a friend who is a BTA that a few she knows got into GSB, MIT and Wharton this year, so it's definitely possible.
Great, that's comforting. Thank you.
