WeMakeScholars Finance & Accounting Department Reviews

Likes

I joined WeMakeScholars after 1.5 yrs of experience at 2 different mid-size start-ups. But believe me, WeMakeScholars is a very different experience. Company has a pretty positive vibe- lean hierarchy, very simple practices, rarely any politics, most people love the company. A good number of employees continue after 1 yr bond and I have spoken to a few who expressed missing the company after leaving, but at the same time, there are a few haters also, who are always negative about every policy, every change and there is one such person in my team. It is so hard to understand why is she cribbing about everything. To be honest, I haven’t seen such extremes in any company. I think if you are a doer, you would like it. If you are a lazy a** who knows who to get away without doing any work, don’t even think of joining....Read More

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....Read More

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.

About an year ago, I joined as a financial officer and as we all know there is 1 yr commitment period. I know my thoughts are going to be opposite to many of you, but I feel working with a 1 yr bond, made me very focussed and kept me away from all the distractions of the world- CA, CMA, ACCA…. I have had a very fulfilling learning experience, compared to my friends, who spent this last 1 yr writing all the exams of the world, without actually focussing on any. Also, you can ask anyone at WeMakeScholars, the salary hike after 1 yr, is pretty good… it is worth staying for a few more years, after you get that hike. And the company is pretty stable and sorted in terms of funds, so there isn’t any risk of lay off, until unless you goof up....Read More

Dislikes

Rules are a little too strict, but I think it is required considering the fact that literally every new joinee is 20-21 yr old kid and we GenZs are hard to manage.

Good company, Excellent colleagues, Good role, No politics. Salary is always credited on time and better than what market offers for freshers. You won’t even get in-hand starting salary of 22k in TCS or Wipro. And most important, company is pretty stable, without any investment, so bro, you won’t get an email saying “Laid off” unlike Byju’s or unacademy.

Dislikes

There is too much competition in FO role. There are perks also, but you should be someone who wants to work hard and grow.

I relocated to Hyderabad to join wemakescholars. Of course, the starting salary of 22k was tight when you are the sole earner in the family and you have to send minimum 10k back home for your parents survival needs. I worked hard, in fact, very hard for one year and when it came to my retention, Arjun and Kshitij, offered me a good hike almost 12k on my base pay. I am earning well now and able to send around 15k home and still living a decent bachelor’s life in hyderabad....Read More

Dislikes

As it is a start-up, there is a good amount of work. You cannot have that MNC routine of Login, tea break, lunch break, smoke break, tea break and logout. There is actual work here and which demands a little extra hard work. So, not for cool yo-yo guys.

Worked as a financial officer. On top of my 22k fixed salary, I got more than 8k incentives for most months. In season time, got more than 15k to 20k incentives per month. The harder you work, the more you get. It is a good job for freshers. I left due to other career goals.

Dislikes

It is a challenging role and company has a lot of rules.
