I think this is why MBAs are increasingly seen as worthless
I think this is why MBAs are increasingly seen as worthless
a) It's increased my ability to communicate clearly in small and large groups. b) It's given me great context regarding where IT and programming stand in the overall business model c) I've met many professionals around the area in all industries
It's contributed very much to my personal and professional growth, and I haven't even finished yet.
But should you just go get it? Only if it's right for you. Know yourself first, and what you want to do with your life. If it fits in, then go for it and it'll be a great experience.
Programming experience is still valuable, even if you switch. In my experience, it will make you much better at many related roles in a SW companies, such as project manager, product manager or business analyst, since you'll know what it takes to produce the SW (what's hard, what's easy etc).
Personally, I've been programming for over 20 years (always at companies whose main product is SW), and I still love it: http://henrikwarne.com/2012/06/02/why-i-love-coding/
Should I leave it there, move down, or remove it completely? How else did you tailor your resume for your application?
