  1. “Powered by Masters Union”, not news but PR by them
  2. Batch size not given
  3. 20% placed in founders office roles.😂😂 Don’t trust MU for the next 2 3 years. Phir sab nikal jaayega

I wouldn't take it at face value but it does makes me question all tier 1.5-3 MBA colleges who after decades of existence are utterly worthless in providing students good opportunities.

They distribute A4 size sheet known as DEGREE and not soft skills.

A lot of MU students get absorbed into the parent company that owns it. Also MU and LPU have the same owners

I have heard most of the people joining BCG from here are for backend roles and not the same as top IIMs etc. also these placements by master union are highly inflated.

You have heard but ain't confirm news.

Audit reports can be inflated? I doubt

The figures are really surprising. There would definitely be something more to it. Pratham was using personal connects to get the first few batches placed A typical placement cell in bschools is student run

Placing a smaller batch is a fairly easy task. Things go south as the batch size starts increasing.
Iim indore every year has good number of students struggling to find a job

This year around 100 students at iimb were left without a summer internship.

The average breakup of the 34lacs would be interesting to know. Take every B school placement report with handful of salt(barring iim a)

The IIM B thing is just sensationalised. They have a batch of 600. 100 remained after the placement week. They extended it, probably all will get an internship.

No boss, had talks with their placement members. Now only sales companies are coming.

I don't understand why the heck even MU is a B School. It takes fucking years of research, hardwork, legacy and consistent quality to even go into the league of SPIJMR, NMIMS and these MU guys think themselves greater than IIMA,B,C !!! Have a colleague in another team who did from MU and is now a normal executive, kinda sales role. It takes years and years to build trust in B Schools.

Harvard, Stanford werent created in 1 - 2 years, hundreds of years, best students, research made them to the top !!!

@Zumbala444 Did you question the legitimacy of Razorpay as well when joining vs large legacy payment companies? Because it takes “fucking years of hardworking”

  1. Razorpay offered a new offering which other legacy providers did not have. MU is offering an MBA degree only that has been present since decades. If Razorpay also offered the same product as legacy companies, do u think corporates would have used it?

  2. Now u will argue that MU offers a different type of MBA grad. Read this before u start typing that. Razorpay offers a tech product. Hiring top engineers and creating a quality product with new type of features is a good way to gain credibility. Since the product quality depends on 2 things : features offered and quality of code which depends entirely on hiring top class engineers by offering top tier pay.An MBA grad's quality depends on 2 things : most importantly the students own capabilities and secondly knowledge. For knowledge there are plenty of sources today but aptitude and capability is inherent. Sorry for my harsh words, but MU students don't have the same latter quality as top bschool grads, otherwise they would not go to MU. Is there anyone in your batch that had an admit from a top 15 school and still went to MU? Also unfortunately for MU, unlike Razorpay, they can't pay and get the top bschool tier talent to enroll in their programme. Unless they improve the quality of the students, they can't command the same respect as top tier b school. Students and alumni are the most important driving factors of a bschool's fame

In real, I think this is true but a function of ESOPS

Most MU folks go to startups, where it can sometimes be 50-50 in cash and stocks

This is the truth. Significant contributor of the salary inflation here is ESOPs

check IIM A and MU placement report. IIM A report has the stamp of brickwork on every page. MU report has that only on the first 3 pages. MU report contains brickwork's analysis on only 3 pages vs IIM A has 20+ page report. Also MU report mentions that in case 4 yr split of RSU was not given, they considered all 4 yrs rsu in 1 yrs CTC. Now this is an easy loophole for MU to use. They will ask the companies to not mention the split on the JD so that it can be inflated by brickwork's.

Sounds like "We placed more guys into Amazon then combined IIT's" -Scaler

I know a lot of people who don’t consider IIMs as an option because CAT has basically become a mini JEE and is hostile to non-techies. I mean the level they ask is completely unnecessary to an MBA.

This flows down look at the class profile of IIMs and ISB and other global b schools, it’s a engineering sausage fest.

Mostly people prefer to go abroad if they can afford it/loan/Ivy or go to ISB.

GigglySushi

Mini JEE? It is just based on simple math and data interpretation skills. The syllabus is also just class 10 math. It is not like they are asking vector calculus. If people can't handle basic math and logic, then do they really deserve to lead companies? Corporate business is not like music or other artistic streams where lack of logical thinking can be overcome by inspiration fuelled short spurts of creativity. Also for non techies, VARC is a strong card which is not for engineers also non engineering crowd gets diversity points.

Brother I know you’re some random engineer turned MBA.

I have two non techie friends who are at Ivy League MBA but would not have managed to clear CAT.

No it’s not simple level maths it’s not class 10 level maths. You should read a Class 10th Book maybe I guess. I had Science in 11-12 even then I would argue the maths they ask is wholly unnecessary and promotes rote learning/ coaching culture which is reflected in the composition of IIMs batches which is the biggest thing holding IIMs back from going global.

Also, I guess you’re projecting your techie insecurities but I can’t help you with those only a therapist can my only suggestion is not to think yourself as a techie and expand your skills and abilities. There’s literally nothing a techie knows that helps them with an MBA compared to a BA/CA/Lawyer in fact they are much more likely to have real world knowledge and not engage in Android v iOS debate for intellectual stimulation.

If they really achieved such numbers, then they should release an exclusive report with student name, company in which they got placed and CTC break up.

Unless they do it, I am not a fool to believe in those numbers

That would be in conflict with privacy. Nobody releases pay numbers publicly - what you’re asking is unreasonable
