<p>Agreed.But i think you still get an "architect" kind of job and i'm guessing a MSc/MEng would give you an edge. It doesn't mean that with an MSc you won't get a management job. Plus, i have seen that 80% of the management job descriptions do not <em>explicitly</em> state that they require an MBA. The most important thing is having some kind of leadership/team lead experience. That being said, an MBA would definitely give you an edge for management jobs, but the most important thing is you have the experience. Where I am currently working, 85% of the managers do not have an MBA. Infact, even some of the directors don't have an MBA.</p>
