Blah Blah from The TeaBreak Team.

My career path is as follows

- I have done my BS in Computer Software Engineering - 4 years degree from a reputed top Pakistani University. - GIKI. I am working for 1/2 an year as Software Engineer & Team Lead now at a Software house in Islamabad.

Team lead involves management as well, so i am thinking of pursuing MBA (probably MBA- IT) now along with job from NUST (as it’s close to my work place). I can do MS (CSE) as well from the same institution and pursue PHD. Later on and adopt teaching field as a career.

I am confused between the two. An year back I was never ever considering MBA as an option but now in the industry i feel that MBA can give me a jump in the corporate ladder.

One reason of MBA is also that i don’t like my field very (truly speaking) and i am always thinking of plans of smooth shift to some other field without any harm to my career. Other one is that i don’t see large multinational companies in software field here in Pakistan. All we have at many places is some people having 5-6 computers in a room and start a company which get’s closed down in less than 2 years (that is the upper limit as well :P)

What do you think that i should go for? and where i will end up in these fields. Will appreciate your sincere comments… thanks.
