[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Venture capital firms are not hiring BAs they’re hiring MBAs from Stanford Harvard and Wharton earning about $300,000 starting salary.  Consulting firms, financial services all paying good money and bonuses.  I’m not sure why people are sneering at MBAs[/quote]

Because a lot of the parents boasting about their kids' MBAs think that their degree from Rochester or UMD or Fordham is on par with a Harvard MBA.

(I have an MBA from one of the first three schools I mentioned.)[/quote]

NP here. What’s wrong with an MBA from
Rochester/UMD/Fordham? Give me a break, it’s 2023, I don’t care if someone went to HBS. Those grads don’t have a lock on being smart, successful and worth of praise for their accomplishment. [/quote]

There are great jobs waiting for MBA graduates.   But the top paying jobs are still only recruiting from Stanford, Harvard, Wharton [b]and maybe a few more. [/b]  Just like top law firms starting with similar high salaries are only recruiting top ranked from top law schools. That doesn’t mean people graduating from lower ranked law schools don’t have successful careers. [/quote]

An unfair statement as Chicago, Northwestern, Columbia, MIT, & NYU finance all place very well year-after-year. Dartmouth-Tuck and Michigan-Ross also place well.[/quote]
