Do you plan on staying with your current employer? It might be worth looking for company sponsorship for PT to help with costs.
I think it depends on the company. Some companies prefer people to stay working while getting the MBA, some want you to leave (and maybe not come back). I can only think of a handful of corp dev teams that have MBA summer internships or post on OCR. The majority of "corp dev" positions involve some sort of financial leadership rotational aspect and does not guarantee a placement in corp dev after your 2-3 years of rotating through BO/MO positions (controller, treasury, etc.).
Thanks for the insight. My ideal situation would be to come back to my same employer for a few years and then move to another tech focused corp Dev role at a larger firm. Will a part time program put me at disadvantage in this situation?
I wouldn't think so. It would help. People on this forum really don't like PT programs, but they do bring some added benefit.
