Well, if you are interested in any being the lead in any kind of serious projects. Say a new, cool defence contracting project, you won't even be considered if you don't have an MBA. At least from my experience. That's also where the serious money is. As well as the serious headaches. I recommend you see a career counselor and take a personality test before you go down this route though. If you don't exceptional communications skills, wit and a passion to lead people you may be miserable. If instead you would rather keep your head doug into some techinical project, get your masters in that.
But I'm by no means an expert.
