Is an MBA worth it for career growth after early corporate experience?
I’m currently working as an admin in a corporate setting and have been in the workforce for almost 2 years. I graduated from UP Diliman, but my degree is not business-related, and I feel like it has somewhat limited my upward mobility in corporate roles.
I’m starting to consider whether pursuing an MBA would help me pivot or accelerate my career growth, especially in business or management roles.
For those who’ve taken an MBA or are in the process—was it worth it for you? Did it significantly change your career trajectory or salary? Also, which MBA programs or schools would you recommend (locally only) that actually deliver strong ROI?
Would really appreciate honest insights, especially from people who didn’t come from a business background initially.
