Engineers (hw/sw) here?

Hello, These forums have great advice for finance/bschool people. I was looking for similar forum for engineering guys. An engineer in 30s with experience in semiconductor, I could not find a similar forum for core tech guys (think chip companies intel, qualcomm, altera etc)

Any suggestions that will have discussion regarding pros and cons of engineering work in certain groups of these companies?

btw, I recently applied to a top three bschool for mba and was interviewed but denied. I am also considering if I could directly apply (without mba) to MBB and if it makes sense for my background.

- senior engineer at a tech corporation.
- lead a team of engineers for software products
- MS in comp eng
- leadership role at a nonprofit for the under educated communities
- good ECs overall
