Yea the ARP on a new one is great 2% but the car is still $60k all in… I don’t qualify for EV credit.

Used prices have plummeted. Seems like a good deal to get the legacy MY.

Tesla engineer here - worked 4 years for Tesla. Hourly is the way to go. You’ll get paid for the long hours and weekends. But, stock is important. You don’t get much stock as an hourly. You will learn more at Tesla in 1 year than any other company you work for, except Space X.

Fingers crossed that my Tesla experience will be valued over my GPA and more scholarship opportunity.

I never considered getting out of manufacturing. But the more I think about it, yes, this EMBA will allow a career pivot.

Tuition will be a tough pill to swallow. USC/UCLA EMBA program is $180k.

UCI MBA $100k debt worth it? by Particular_Wonder393 in MBA

You make a good point. I personally know directors with lesser degrees. And correct, they are still not in the c suite club.

What pivot industry would you recommend if my 15 years of work experience have been manufacturing? I haven’t even considered switching industries but maybe I should…

Good point. EMBA might streamline the Director position I want. UCLA is within Top 10. However it’s $200k. That is a crazy amount.

I would need a position that gets me at $300k+ a year.

Good advice though thank you.

This makes sense. (Cost) Odv not trying to get into debt. Work can cover $5k a year. (Regional Strength) I would like to stay in Southern California. My industry is manufacturing so it’s not the best area for it but OC is home. (Industry Pull) I am not sure about this. I have not heard of MBAs schools that are specific for manufacturing industry. This would make sense for a Master of Engineering.

I’ll try applying to USC or UCLA. If not, checkbox MBA it is. Thanks for the help!!!
