According to me, MBA is a driving force for higher salaries in future. But just the degree doesn’t help you earn huge money. Your salary depends on your skill, knowledge and analysis for the job you are about to join and how helpful you are to the organisation. A rise in salaries from MBA might not be sustainable in long run as there are many MBA institutes been established without proper accreditation and proper staff. People joining these kinds of MBA could not get High salary placements. Growth in this kind of institute could bring down high MBA salaries in future. This could be detrimental to MBA graduates. Thus proper evaluation and research should be done before joining any institute.

Thank you.

Good morning friends. Today's topic is rise in MBA salary is not sustainable " if we look back. Around 5 years back MBA degree was not so common bit these days MBA degree is as common as graduation. It is more or less a mandatory degree which everyone opts for. MBA does not guarantee a sustainable salary. However in any field it is knowledge, skill and expertise is what any company demands. Degree gives you an entry to a job but it is your profile, knowledge and understanding that makes you to the top. So according to me, yes MBA salaries are not sustainable. Rather a person to keep up with current issues, knowledge and expertise in whatever companies demand for handsome salaries. Thank you.

Hello friends,

Salary does not depend on the degree you hold. Even if you hold many degrees but do not update yourself time to time. It' s completely irrelevant. Because in today dynamic and competitive environment the organisations search the candidates who have the passion to do something with his KSA i.e. knowledge, skills and attitude. The rising in the salary also depends on the return you are providing to the organisation by your work.

At last but not least I want to say we should work like we are working in our organisation. And focus on the output rather than on completion of time. Then there will be no question to rise in salary. Whether MBA or any degree holder.

Thank you.

As I feel that the above statement has a worthy meaning, as we studied in economics law of demand and supply, as there is huge no. Of MBA graduates are in the pipeline, there would be excess of supply over demand hence definitely compensation range would come down, there is relatively less positions avaible with the organisation to be filled, hence it there is enormous competition in the market hence it can be said that rise in MBA salary range would not sustain in the long run. One more important thing to be discussed is as market is under economic crisis there would be consecutively less employment opportunity, this could be the one of the reason for the above statement.

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.

Its not just about MBA Salaries but everything in the todays market is not sustainable in the long run. Moreover in the past 4-5 years in India there has been a Massive growth towards the Interest of Students towards Management Studies and MNC's selecting the Cream is on of the main reason's of MBA Salaries going all the way up but if this continuous for the next 5 years there will definite stop in the rise because guyz if we will have 1 lakh of doc's and advocates and 10 lakh of MBA's there would be a big % of people willing to work on Low Salaries as Managers.

Hello,

According to my point of view, salary of an individual always depends upon the quality of his work, his hard work, his passion and his contribution towards the success of any company. Just holding one degree won't enhance his salary but if he has knowledge, skills and dedication towards the work along with the degree then he will always be paid off for his work.

We cannot predict the rise in salaries will sustain or not, but no doubt it can be said that the one who is capable and shows up regular hard work is sustainable in this run.

Thank You!

According to me, mba is just another degree like engineering and mbbs, i.e. 1000's of colleges have opened giving these degrees. i dont think that rise in salary depend upon the no. of students pursuing mba, as there are countless no. of people pursuing mba today.Any company, hiring a student from campus interviews offer an average package and after observing the personnal's work increases their salary, and so according to me rise in salary does not depend on whether the person has done mba or not,it depends upon how you perform in the market.

Well I believe not just by pursuing MBA degree will give you high salary package ! A good manager should have a clear view of present market and his thoughts should be according to that. For that he/she supposed to know each and every aspects happening in the present market. As world's business becoming more and more competitive he should be on his toes with his creative ideas and bring profit to his company or else he will be cornered. So I believe rise in MBA salaries depends upon an individuals performance through out his run.
