Pros

I have worked at WMS for more than 1.5 years & now working in a well known corporate. This is my honest review about my exp working there and also some things I noted during my tenure there: A. It is not a smooth ride, obviously there are ups & downs. And I think this is true for any company or relationship in general. But, hand on my heart the memories you make here and the frnds you make here are priceless. B. Working in a small org is way different & way better than working in a large one. Large orgs have tons of politics, growth is not super fast, your voice/ opinion/ feedback is not easily heard in large corporates. But in startups this is not true. C. Grass always looks greener on the other side. I say this because everyone always complained too much about every little thing INCLUDING me. But now that I look back they really seem silly. I mean there are much bigger things to focus on in career & life in general. D. Teamwork & leadership skills are very very important. The management (you know who) has complained that I have to improve in this aspect many times & I always used to get angry. BUT, even though back then I disagreed with them, I think its one of the most imp skill in life. And for many freshers (incl me when I joined there) they get their early exposure to this here. E. The feedback that the higher management used to give was sometimes very straight forward (they dont sugar coat so sometimes its harsh). At that moment I used to hate it but as time passed, I realised that I should concentrate on the feedback & not the way it was delivered. Again, I realized this to be true in any situation in life. So all in all, I had the time of my life in these 2 yrs, learnt a lot from everyone. My only suggestion to anyone is, take full advantage of the opportunity right in front of you. Just do your best and forget the rest, dont overthink too much abt the future.

Cons

- Starting salary compared to other organisations is low but exposure wise it is pretty good. - They still follow the old process by taking docs. Anyways, they returned within 2 months. Initially I had trust issues regarding this but later was all good.

Pros

Guys believe me, I applied for atleast 300 jobs on Internshala before getting into WeMakeScholars. And I am someone who went to a decent college, has above 80s in all my acads, had an internship experience, but still after BBA, I wasn’t getting offered more than 15k for any meaningful job. Those offering higher than 15k were all night shifts or BPOs. It was kind of unbelievable for me when I got this job, I mean 22k, day shift job and a role where I know what I am doing and some good learnings, was the best possible combination.

Cons

To all those who are looking for cons here, just go and start finding a job and you will know how you are ghosted by most legit companies and how you are followed up by only illegit job scammers. WeMakeScholars doesn’t have any cons. I have been working here since 8 months and it was one of the best career starts I could dream for.

Pros

Many companies promise incentives and fail to deliver. I Saw many of my friends getting delayed incentives after months. But, here the incentives are paid on time and punctual. Even the salaries are paid on a punctual basis which is why I respect this organization the most. The job role is also fine and as a fresher, I think the learnings are decent.

Cons

There are proper rules and regulations implemented in the organization, which is not bad to maintain a healthy culture. But, at times, you miss something unknowingly and may end up in a penalty. I faced it a couple of times in the first month, but now I’ve learned to avoid and abide by it. The initial few days will be a little difficult to cope with new rules as I’m a fresher directly from campus. But, with practice, it's not that difficult either.
