We like to picture all business grads hittin' the big times and rolling in a pile of dough. "Wait, they don't all do that?" The truth is, Shmoopers, that's the exception, not the rule. We don't want to make any promises—not all business majors will become the next Bill Gates or Steve Jobs straight out of college.
Still, business majors have a lot to smile about. They make a little above average when it comes to other college graduates. Plus, over half of them are satisfied with their jobs. Hey, we'll take it. The great thing about versatility is that you don't feel trapped.
Our point? Just say you want to work for a Fortune 500 company and climb your way to the top. You can do that with your business degree. Or maybe you see yourself starting a non-profit and working for little to nothing while trying to make the world a better place. Grab ahold of that business degree.
Whether it's a big or small company you see yourself in, a business degree will get you there. And who doesn't love options?
