i was a business analyst with a large company and got my MBA from University of Georgia in the evening program the past 2 years, with the 10k/year paid for by my company

now i'm starting a new job in just over a week as a Product Manager with huge increase in salary and earning potential and career path...without my mba i don't even get a look at that job...graduated in may so took a few months to get a job, but i also only have experience as business analyst (6 years) and had no idea what sort of jobs to even apply for

mine was free and i love learning and enjoy business strategy wayyyy more than the comp sci i learned in undergrad, but even if i had to pay for it, it would def have been worth it monetarily, career-wise, and with regard to job options

it can help u get a non-entry-level job in a field u hadn't had experience in before...yes, u can get up to the same levels all the way to ceo without an mba, but u can get there faster or get a leg-up to start with the degree
