You can teach someone a lot about accounting in school, you can’t teach them much about actually managing people. Regardless of what you feel about that, if your school is anything like mine management majors tend to get paid the least of all majors(my school is generally around 55k for accounting, supply chain, MIS, finance, and 35k for management. Marketing is like 45k but that’s less reliable since I don’t know how that statistic factors in sales commissions for those marketing majors that get those.
