Unless the MBA will get a “Chief Something Officer” like CIO, CTO, CFO, etc, then doing an MBA will not get you further than a regular 'ole M.S./M.Eng degree. Also, like was stated earlier, you must have a good deal of experience to manage engineers.

Nowadays (of course I can only speak of software engineering), high and purely technical positions pay about the same as management that is lower than CIO’s, CFO’s, CTO’s etc.
