Masters Not a Good Idea
#2
The 2 scenarios you described pretty much sums up what I had on top of my head. I guess you can also include very junior positions like data entry where they might think you will leave because you will be looking for something else.

MBA is a very specific program, at some universities you can't even do it if you have a BBA, as it is more geared toward people coming from different background moving up in position or for entrepreneurial purposes.. So in the MBA case, I feel it's about what kind of position are you looking for with it? There are some roles that can fit with an MBA, product/project management is one that comes to mind.


Personally, I don't see any issue with having a master that help you specialize in an area even when you are starting your career.
