MBA Externals are those hired from business schools. They come in at the highest buyer level and earn a six-figure salary. They generally do two buyer rotations and are promoted to Sr. Buyer.

MBA externals can become Sr. Buyers without ever doing a role in Merchandise Planning.

It's not unusual for internal Sr. Buyers to be more critical of MBA externals or to drive more/unnecessary workload, especially if they find out that the MBA external is making a higher salary, which is common
