<p>I hired a couple of engineers that also had a business background. Regretted doing so. They weren’t as committed to doing engineering work (which is what I hired them to do) and wanted to move to the business side of the company or immediately into management (which they were not suited for either from a experience level or personality point of view). </p>
<p>Therefore, after that, I tossed every resume that had a significant business background in it.</p>
<p>Just my experience.</p>
