WeMakeScholars Financial Advisor Reviews

Likes

I liked everything about this company- job, work life balance, culture, discipline, everything. I joined this company after working in Byju’s for 6 months. And I am telling you wemakescholars is heaven. And all the negative reviews you see are from those freshers, who have zero idea of what's happening in the world, they have never seen how the managers screw you in other companies for targets. These freshers firstly don't know even basics of professional world, even how to properly write an email and when somebody is trying to teach them ABC of everything, they call it micromanagement. They should join Byju’s or any other Edtech to see how targets and work culture in other companies are....Read More

Dislikes

Salary is lesser than other Edtechs. But other benefits like work life balance, make up for it.

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

I am satisfied with my job profile as a financial officer. The role has a good mix of finance and sales. And it is a very respectable job, students and parents are really depending on you. Salary and incentives are good too. Not much pressure for targets, but rules are strict. Always got salary on time, unlike most of my friends whoare working in other laying off start-ups. The company's work culture is pretty friendly....Read More

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.

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.

I worked here for 1.5 yrs and now working in Bengaluru, as my family had to shift. I can see how in my current company how they treat freshers, literally no meaningful role and no respect. But because WeMakeScholars is made of freshers with atleast 90% having their first job at WeMakeScholars, they really value freshers. And they literally taught every damn thing like how to even write an email subject, without showing me low. Join here, for the best start of your career....Read More

Dislikes

CEOs are involved in operational activities, they do not respect or appreciate any of the employees. They exploit the local employees with lower salaries than the relocated ones. They do not listen but keep the pressure that if you are unable to achieve the unachievable targets they set (especially for the North team) they will give you an internship position with half the salary with the same working hours(relocated or not)....Read More
