Maybe it's because I'm a non-target UG --> Army --> Tech startup --> Boutique IB --> non-target MBA idiot, but what the hell do people do after they've done the gone through the coveted (sarcasm + jealousy) track and then go to an M7 B school? Do they start their own businesses? If so, why spend the money on MBA when they could use it to fund ~2 years of burn. Do they want to jump ship to another buy-side offer but can't get out of their current gig without burning bridges? Do they not know what they want to do next? Genuinely curious because this world is foreign to me!

Many PE firms force their associates out, so they go to b-school so that they can get a post-MBA VP/Sr. Associate role back in PE. This is often (but not always) downstream.
Hopefully, they find out what they really want to do
Buddy's sister did this. BB --> UMM PE --> HBS --> now does corp dev at large tech company. There's 1 datapoint for you
Was she in the tech or M&A group when she was in IB? Curious about switching industries.
Tech coverage group that did it's own in house M&A
For corp dev, it's largely irrelevant if you were in an M&A group or just coverage. You just need M&A experience.
Coconut and Lemonade stall in Bali
classmates of mine either went back to PE (to same firm as before MBA who required an MBA for promotion, to a diff firm if their firm didn't have promotion opps, to a better/larger firm), went into tech/startups, raised a search fund, or started a company.
