Hi S3t0a0r0k0
Happy to share my point of view. You will get similar types of roles from both colleges if you are only focusing on operations management roles. But if you want to explore what else might be out there for you, I feel ISB will give you more visibility into the breadth of opportunities, simply because it has a larger class size and therefore attracts more variety in terms of opportunities. For my mentees who have crossed 28-29 years of age, I am a big proponent of the IIM A PGPX program, but if you haven’t crossed that age yet and genuinely enjoy a more active and challenging academic setup, I’d say you will feel more fulfilled after the ISB experience. The ISB PGP network is also deeply established due to the huge class size. But of course both the programs are equally good IMO.
Happy to answer any other questions
Best wishes
