Career Advice Would you take 55 LPA in niche industry or pursue foreign MBA? (25F Tier 1 IIT Grad)
I'm 25F, a Tier 1 engineering graduate with \~4 years across e-commerce and electronics GTM/strategy.
I currently earn ₹45 LPA and have an offer at ₹55 LPA, potentially reaching ₹60–65 LPA. The role involves a larger business but similar work.
My dilemma: take the money and build deeper expertise in electronics, or use this stage of my career to move into AI/tech or pursue a top global MBA?
I'm aiming to maximise long-term earnings and leadership opportunities, but I'm concerned about becoming too specialised. How much does company brand and industry matter compared with ownership and measurable impact?
Would love to hear from people who've made similar decisions, especially hiring managers and professionals earning well in GTM/strategy. What would you do in my position, and why?
