MBAs get your foot in the door. But, at my workplace, we are a dime a dozen. Almost everyone around me has a Masters, a JD or a PhD.
Was it worth it? Yes and no. My undergrad was MUCH more challenging.
Did it get me a job? Yes and no. It got me the first job in my field. I was recruited from my current company by my former Director. He didn't hire me because of my degree; he hired me because I knew what I was doing.
Did it get me more money? I don't know. I'm not rich, but I have a good income. From hiring others, I know that when I need to pay someone more, I go to bat with their education.
