Not always - the only 'guarantee' for that is if you are in a management position, or a path leading you quickly towards one. It all depends on who you are working for and what their goals are. Your best bet is to wait a few years out of school before getting started - UVA has an accelerated masters program that I've been looking into for a while now. Its 13 months, classes on weekends. I'm just not really looking forward to doubling my student loans in one year
Its usually a good thing to pursue more eduction, and I'm planning on getting an MBA in the next few years, but in the mean time (next year) i'll be looking to get a PMP certification.
