Does MBA make sense

Currently a manager at f500 company, on track for senior manager promotion in next 12 months. I’m 7 years into career making ~130k base, with a promotion I’d be looking at 150k+ (lcol). Is an MBA worth it? Hard to assume I’d get a pay bump with current employer once I’ve graduated.
