IIM as well has a robust network. My overall impression is you get much more benefit from people you know from the experience rather than random strangers who you might call out of the blue. (On-line programs struggle with this a lot) I also wouldn't short-sell the opportunity to do a career reset. If you have a CS degree and want to go into Finance or Marketing in a tech company, the MBA can give you that reset. (Or banking or consulting)
