I'm sure there have been posts describing the pros and cons of a MBA, but due to the current market environment, I think this decision should be reevaluated.
The costs of attendence (leaving an established job, tuition) seem to be increasing while the future benefits (education, connections, higher salaries) have remained constant. Meanwhile, the competition to attend has only gotten greater.
I'm 2.5 years out of undergrad with a steady position at a middle market bank where I can continue to advance without the MBA title. Given this path ahead of me, I am starting to doubt the importance of an MBA (for me), although I had always planned to attend after 4 years of work.
I'd interested in hearing comments or thoughts.
And with that, I have popped my WSO posting cherry....
All good points you bring up. Most importantly, why do you want to get an MBA and what would you do with it? The answers to these questions should really be driving the decision to for an MBA or most grad degrees.
