MIT Sloan’s Class of 2025 saw a sharp rebound in placement rates while pay outcomes diverged. Three months after graduation 91.0% of Sloan job seekers had received offers (up from 85.1% for the Class of 2024) and 87.1% had accepted roles. The recovery at graduation and post‑graduation shows hiring momentum returning after 2024’s reset. The compensation picture is mixed: median total compensation fell to $209,130 from $214,450 for the Class of 2024 even as mean total pay edged up to $248,797. Base salaries and signing bonuses strengthened but variable and “other” compensation — relocation, equity, tuition reimbursement — compressed, signaling a market that rewards stability and top‑end outcomes more than outsized upside.
