Fmcg firms will offer a ctc in the range of 25-32. Fixed might be between 18-27 kind of range. This is more or less possible at sibm pune and imt ghaziabad and not at the other two colleges youve mentioned. Also  a lot depends on your profile

SIBM Pune and IMT G are the best among the lot. SIBM Pune is a way ahead of IMT G. 
  
 Packages can be as high as 22 lpa fixed and as low as 10 lpa CTC. Currently the situation is the worst in most colleges.  
  
 Profile plays a huge role in placements. Many companies will reject just because of profile. Loan is an issue but in the long run it all starts making sense.

Awesome bud, this is really reassuring thanks!

Honest Placement

Management Consultant

I've heard lots of conflicting good and bad viewpoints on ISB on Grapevine and otherwise. I want to explore these things more and build a balanced perspective.

Good things I've heard:-
1. Average comp is decently high as most of the batch has a decent amount of experience.
2. Professors, their way of teaching and the actual course content is one of the best in India.
3. The network is really strong, easily accessible via many channels and helps alumni land jobs frequently.

Bad things I've heard:-
1. Placement comp numbers are heavily inflated.
2. Resume shortlisting in placements is hard because everyone exaggerates a lot and there's no resume vetting.
3. Many people go unplaced.

How much of this (good or bad) is true? Any other good or bad points?

How good/bad is ISB?

Software Developer

Hi Guys,
I  am working as a software developer in Oracle( btech from old IIT) . Its been 2 years and I now want to switch to management consulting (preferable in MBB) to experience it so want to give MBA.

1. I did some research but I want to gain some information on the salary aspect of it. I heard that the salaries are not that high they would probably be in the same range that I am getting now. BUT, I want to know in the long run do consultants get more hikes compared to tech roles? 

2. I heard the wlb is pretty bad so is there some resource that I can study to know if thats the right suit for me since its a big risk I’ll be taking moving on to a different field. There are some good exit opportunities also I believe after MBB can someone tell more about it.

Would really appreciate some answers on this. Its on my head for a long time. Cheers!

Growth Manager

I've seen many placement statistics that report IIMA grads getting nearly a crore packages in domestic placements.

I'm curious about what these jobs are, and which companies offer these jobs. 

Also, what is the profile of someone who gets such a job? Splendid Academics? Extracurriculars? Amazing work experience pre MBA?

Any insights would be much appreciated. 

Thank you.

What are the jobs and companies that offer domestic ~1Cr packages for IIMA grads?

Looking for top executive MBA program in India.

The top ones in IIMs are costly.
I am looking for something which is affordable and has good placements, alumni network.

Online is preferred though offline from Bengaluru is also fine.
No full time as current job is important.

Hi,
One of my friends posted a job in our batch group but posted that 'this might be suitable for junior folks as salary is low'. Out of curiosity, I asked the salary in DM and the salary was more than what I was earning. So this puts me in a self degrading situation and hence I want to know the salary of fellow 2017 MBA grads.
Please mention the college name if possible.

Salary Comparison 2017 MBA batch

No hate but this is one of the worst things to do for one's mental peace, so many people will have FOMO because of this, including you.  
  
 I know people who stopped participating on Fishbowl because of this, with techies always asking about salaries, investments and what not. 
  
 If your salary is good enough for you, why worry about what others are earning, buddy.  
  
 I once heard a school senior speak on the topic "Why is his shirt whiter than mine?" for an extempore speech and I can't help but recall what they said - Be it anywhere, someone's shirt will always be whiter than yours. The question is, if your shirt is reasonably white and you and those close to you appreciate you while wearing it, does it matter what others are wearing?

Investment Manager

Very confused and have very less time to finalize

Should going to IIMA/B worth it to someone who is IIT passout with 3 years of work experience and have ~50L CTC? Very confused in deciding!!

I am probably earning 2x of what an average T-1 MBA grad makes in India. I'm just not happy in my role and this SDE grind caught me lackin'.

Can you help me determine whether it is still a good bet to get an MBA? Because these normie MBA folks are literally the dumbest people I have seen and I think I can do a better job than them.

Earning 2x of a Tier-1 MBA grad already. Should I still do an MBA?

I joined an MBA program while I was making close to the average salary of post MBA grads. 
  
 Few things to remember: 
  
 1. Opportunity cost of a 2 year MBA is humongous. The PGP at IIMs will cost you a crore+. Imagine trying to get an ROI on it. 
  
 2. PGP at IIMs are filled with freshers and low work experience folks which naturally means there are very few senior roles on offer. So you may not find the right level after MBA. 
  
 3. It's best to restrict yourself to 1 year programs like ISB's PGP and IIM's PGPX. 
  
 4. Be really sure of what you want from the MBA. You can easily switch to SDM or product roles without MBA. Recommend giving that a shot if you are just tired of SDE

Hey Pratham  
  
 I was in the 2nd batch of MU  
  
 The placement report that is being marketed is not actually what happened in our cohort, why is it inflated or is there a specific way this was calculated ?

Should I go for MBA in top 10 b schools india like IIMs, XLRI, SPJAIN, etc

So a little background about myself. 

I graduated in 2023 from a tier college and managed to get an off-campus job in an investment bank as an SDE. 

My current salary is 24LPA.

Would it be beneficial for me to do MBA from the above mentioned colleges

Like would the placements there be better than what I have currently? 

Also if I can save enough money in 2 years would a MBA in US in a top 20 uni be better than MBA in IIM? 

I will be going for further studies sometime in 2025 or 2026.

My main goal is to improve my salary and build a network. 

I have also managed my own dev agency and did freelance projects in the past 4 years. 

If anybody has gone through the same please let me know your experience. 

This also applies to MTech/MS as well

Thank you.

Should I go for an MBA?

Software Engineer

I graduated in 2022 with a Bachelor’s degree from one of the old-IITs. I want to know the prospects that doing an MBA from IIM A, B, or C will open up for someone in my position, both financially and non financially. My current position is SDE-1. If I should do an MBA, how many years of work experience should I have before MBA?

Product Owner

Just got to know recently that a tier 1 mba college didn’t conduct interviews as part of their admission process during covid. Just CAT scores sufficed. 

In addition to this, post admission, these batches didn’t have proctored exams, they could collaborate and solve the exams together and then submit their answers online. 

Please do reply if this was very common during Covid across other colleges and any other such crazy lapses across colleges.

Dark secrets about premier colleges

In another college, there is no resume vetting and people can and do add a lot of BS "achievements". 
 This is also the college with the largest intake and almost every second person has something like a director's merit list or an honors' list or they are a 'torchbearer'.
