Good afternoon friends,

According to me salary hike is only useful in long if it is producing the same output, holding an MBA degree does not guarantee the person holds the better knowledge or experience, even a graduate can do a better job. We should emphasis on better result.

Increment of salaries should not be continuous in the long run. See, salary is what the return of work. What and how the work is being done he/she should get accordingly. Coming in business, the more they give profit to the company the more is the return and vice versa.

Hi, friends.

It's good to know your valuable opinions.

In my opinion, the payscale of any organization should not be dependent upon any degree you have, I agree with the fact that MBA Graduates possess better managerial skills than any other person but management is needed for the free running of an organisation it doesn't contribute much in the profit gained by the firm. So I feel that. Those should be paid higher salaries who works towards generating more profits for the organization, those who earn a good name for the firm through their work etc irrespective.

Of their educational qualification because college dropouts can well run a company as compared to other degree holders. So I feel that payscale should depend on upon the type of work you do for the organization you work in but not the degree you hold.

Thankyou!

As per my opinion salaries for MBA candidates are so high because they are trained personnel to handle any kind of business situations like inflation, recession, low demands, higher demands, bottlenecks etc with very less experience and high probability of success in handling the situation. Day by day the competition in business world is greatly increasing and so salaries of MBA are raising rapidly. But after a long run the business world may reach to a saturation point where the profits of the companies may not raise, due to which the salaries of MBA may get effected badly. But there are also chances that the trained intelligent MBA's may search alternate ways to increase the income of their fields which may not effect their salaries. So Rise in MBA Salaries may or may not be sustainable in the long run.

Hello Friends,

Rise in MBA salaries fully depends on the revenue of any firm. There use to be a committee in any firm which decides on these things that whether the salaries of MBAs under that company should be increased or not. Look if you are studying regularly for your exam, then what you expect? You expect a good mark in all subjects and finally a good percentage in that exam. And if you are not studying regularly then what you expect? Hey God please bless me. Please provide me that much marks so that I can pass the exam. There is a huge difference between both of these thinkings. The same thing applies on the company management. How an MBA degree holding person can get good salary in any company if they are performing well? But if they are doing their job on the regular basis and generating a good profit for the firm then obviously they must be awarded by a good increment in their salary. Thus if MBAs are making profit for the company then rise in their salaries will, of course, be sustainable. No doubt it.

Thank you.

Hi friends.

Simply a MBA degree holder doesn't ensure good quality of knowledge.

Knowledge is tested in hard times. If a person is able to overcome the problem in company then he/she should be paid handsome amount. Work determine pay not degree.

Thank you.

Yess I am fully agreed with my fellow speakers. Although MBA is quite popular today yet It dosent give you the gaurentee for high pakages. Its you who make the better use of your degree with your personal abilities and skills. Other than no salary is going for a long run in any field. If you are doing good and your company is earning benefit from you. You can enjoy pretty handsome salary. On the other hand if your campany's finacial position is not well and simuntaneously reccesion is hitting at that time. Then, you should not expect good salary from your employers inspite being an MBA or else.

Salary depend on qualification, skills, the presence of mind, discipline, punctuality and many reasons. But the salary of selected person increased up to 30 percent before salary. Because today India is developing the country.

I am totally agree with this statement. Holding MBA degree with you doesn't mean that you will get highest package this scenario was in market before 5-6 years but now a days their are son many guys around us who are with same qualification.

So it is very important that how you are expressing your knowledge and skills in front of this competitive world because your theoretical knowledge is not useful for you as well as this market. So its fully depends upon you how you applying your knowledge and skills for solving problems.

So if anybody wants to sustain in this market he or she must have to be update with current knowledge and should develop own ideas to tackle the problem coming in market otherwise their is no demand in this market for that market.

So finally I want to say that only having MBA degree it doesn't count now you should prove yourself in front of the world based on your own knowledge, skills and ideas.

What I opine that your skills and your knowledge is required to earn an handsome salary for you not your degree be it MBA or MBBS or BE. If you don't have knowledge you can never sustain in your job.

It is very right that you have to give four times the money to your company then your salary. In the end your speaks.

MBA is just a degree like every other degree and as we see more and more colleges are running and there are hundreds and hundreds of people sanding in a queue for a single job and at this stage the qualities and skills you possess will explain who you are and what sum of money you should be paid for your work.

In the end I would like to conclude that I totally agree to this point that rise in MBA salaries is not sustainable in long run but it is entirely your passion towards work, your skills, your knowledge in total will help you earn more and more money.
