Hi everyone, I'm working in a pre-sales role at IBM. I completed MBA in 2023 and I feel that IBM is bit slow and bureacratic. I was hoping I would be able to switch to a startup. But I have a few questions -
Do startups pay well for MBA based roles too or is it only the dev team that get paid well? My comp at IBM is 25 LPA and I would like to be within similar range.
How do you find primarily about jobs in startups? Is LinkedIn the best source or are there other more effective methods to know about openings?
Do startups hire MBA folks with ~1 years of experience in MNCs or do they primarily look for fresh out of college people only? Is profile switch possible (i.e. from sales to finance/operations/supply chain etc)
Startups do value MBA graduates, but remember, it's not just about the degree but the skills you bring. Yes, they do pay well, but it's often a mix of salary and equity. LinkedIn, AngelList, and networking events are good sources for startup jobs. Startups appreciate diverse experience, so a switch in your profile is possible. However, be prepared for a dynamic environment. It's not for everyone, but if you're adaptable, it can be a rewarding experience.
