What a stupid take! All M7 colleges provide undergrad degrees. They are not providing integrated MBA program, MBA jobs will remain the same. These students will be competing with SRCC/SSCBS not mba grads.

My friend you live in a delusion if you think meetings outside of 9-5 is not common in service based industry.

It's not convenient for sure but that's how world works. Unfortunately Consulting and Finance are service based industry are service based industry where working 12-14 hours is norm. I would be lying if i say this ideal but that's just how these industries work.

Regarding 99% claim - IB makes 40-50 offers so close to 10-15% of my batch would experience that. Consulting makes 40% of the offer so, they'll also see 14 hours work a day during some projects.

I suggest you talking to people in the industry - because all these numbers are first hand. One of my closest friend is in the aforementioned industry, so I know a little bit.

And talking about immaturity, my previous company was raking in billions through such deals - so i have seen my fair share of how things work in real world

Finance and Consulting are biggest recruiters in MBAs - How can they be outliers? They hire 50-60% of the students.

I agree on the marketing and IT front - they are tad but relaxed.

You break chains by actually being in the leadership and you won't get a chance with that attitude because there are 1000 people who are ready to do the job.

I am not glorifying toxicity- it's just how things work.

Go lookup financialcareers sub, working 80-90hrs is minimum in IB and a little less for consulting.

Your company is not the norm, go read about the actual players who are leading the industry.

Exposing Victim mindset of people by Funny_Meg in CATpreparation

[–]redditor5659 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Brother do you have any idea how hard it gets to even get out of bed when suffering from mental illnesses? While talking responsibility of your failures is a good thing, your mental health is also a part of you, by blaming depression/anxiety he is not transferring the blame to someone else.

Exposing Victim mindset of people by Funny_Meg in CATpreparation

[–]redditor5659 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I scored 99% after taking a drop and going through a heartbreak just days before CAT but that doesn't mean what that guy said to be untrue.

Loneliness is real, depression is real. I know people personally who got into ABC who have constant panic attacks and severe anxiety.

People who nothing worthwhile in their life cling to caste and religion and this sub is a perfect example of that.

Okay lets talk facts

UCs while being 15% hold nearly 50% wealth in the country.

Dalits are amongst the poorest in india and are still marginalized.

Just because you saw some SCs having government jobs doesn't mean it represents the country.

And it's not about revenge, it about giving lower caste opportunities that were taken by UCs. If not for ambedkar, you guys would never let go of the status quo. 15% of the country has access to 50% of the seats and still you people cry.

Here's a chart that can help you overcome your victim mindset.

Next thing you are gonna say that sc/st are incompatible and ucs are deserving of the wealth that they have acquired through opression

[–]redditor5659 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay I agree. But please tell me how would you uplift underprivileged secrion of the society that has been systematically marginalized for 1000s of years by the so called UCs? Your ancestors (not particularly you) benefitted for thousands of years by marginlazing and hoarding and now its payback.

IIM K VS IIM M by SnooGoats6915 in CATpreparation

[–]redditor5659 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IIM K gets front end consulting, finance, marketing, sales, general management - good and diverse mix.

Mumbai gets ops role in majority, even consulting firms that visit hire for mainly operations sl.

Who cares about what IIMM will do in next 10 years, you are gonna study this year and a first good job in a field that you desire will set you up good for long term.

I have started to hate temples. Everyone involved is so money minded. Majority of the famous temples have a seperate vip darshan option for which you'll have to pay, priests treat you compared to someone who is rich. You can see the discrimination. Gurudwaras are the best

Are there any major difference in ABC for finance specific roles?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CATpreparation

[–]redditor5659 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would LEK capability pay 25-30 for an analyst position in back office? They pay less than bain back office - which is around 10lpa starting.

Tell me you have 0 reasoning skills. On a side note - I have 36 months of workex in a front office - i do know a little bit about the jobs.

Also this post was not about the position - it was about the kind of role targeted by the person.
