It depends.
There are a few programs that are completely online (or 1-2 weeks on campus, and the rest online) that are awarded the same degree as the brick-and-mortar programs (ex. your MBA doesn't say iMBA or Onlien MBA). Those seem to be faring well.
The Devrys and UoPs of the world, though, still don't get much respect, from what I've seen.
ETA: At this point in my career, I'm probably more suited for a Professional MBA. For those, I've noticed people working while earning the degree, doing internships, and transitioning into an updated role post-graduation. Those who go straight through (ex. 5 year BBA/MBA) seem to have the same issues as BBA-only grads.
