I am thinking of going into business and would like to get an MBA. I have 8 years of experience writing software professionally and a background in CS. My goal is to learn about business, running them, scaling them, raising money, etc.

Will getting an MBA help me achieve this goal?

    I finished my MBA in 2014 and I would say it’s absolutely not worth it, even tho I’m now an executive at med/large size company. I don’t really think the MBA played a factor in achieving that position. I was fortunate that a past employer paid for it. If I was in a position today without it I wouldn’t waste my time.

    Ps this answer is assuming you’re not talking about an ivy League MBA, in that case id say I don’t know.
