[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is one of the dumbest pissing contests on DCUM.  I have an MBA, let's not kid ourselves, in the grand scheme of things, it's not that hard. The hardest class most MBAs take is stats. Finance majors do more math and analysis, but it's not higher level math, nor is accounting, for gods sakes. Accounting is addition and subtraction. But, it doesn't matter, because any MBA from a top school is going to make 5-10x what you hard core STEM people are making and we only went to school for 2 years.  So really who's really smarter ?

A MBA alone, without relevant and solid work experience, is worth nothing. There's so many MBA's out there, they are expendable labor (at least at my organization).
I don't care where you went to school for your MBA, resumes without applicable experience go to the circular file.
When I see an undergrad major in 'business' or 'economics' I automatically think "couldn't hack anything else."
BTW, my MS in a STEM field earns me just over 500K per year, which is quite a bit more than my MBA colleagues down the hall.[/quote]
