      The thing I find interesting with the obsession of elite non-STEM, non-creative young people wanting to go into consulting or finance as opposed to literally any other part of the "business" world is that... this is obviously unsustainable. Consulting and finance only exists if there are clients (i.e. businesses/entrepreneurs that directly do productive and valuable things). People are scared little souls playing their status games, no one wants to take a risk. Not even the most privledged people in society. This is probably less true for immigrants, so once again WE NEED IMMIGRATION.

      You prob don't get the grind of what consultants do to get that cushy salary. I'm not a consultant, but it sucks. I made it to final round interviews with McKinsey and BCG. They work 60 to 65 hour weeks and are traveling often thousand mile flights every single week living 4 days a week in a hotel. So they spend 200 out of 365 days a year in a hotel. That 60 to 65 hours is just work time if you add on travel or time away from home it's much more. Post MBA you go in as an associate which is 2nd level up from bottom, analyst. Most post MBA do not get promoted from associate either because they can't stand that much work and travel or they aren't considered good enough for promotion. There's limited spots at VP+ and more associates than roles open there.

    As a former consultant with an mba who pivoted into product roles in tech:
    1) Consulting is just glorified outsourcing
    2) The reasons to do an Mba are: prestige, knowledge and network.
    2.1) You can get the prestige by starting your own business or side business
    2.2) You can get the knowledge on the internet
    2.3) You can get the network in consulting
    3) to pivot careers you don't need an mba
    4) Full time MBA are kind of holidays, executive ones are more valued with better network
    5) Tech pays better than consulting
    6) You don't need an MBA to own a business, which remains the most profitable option
