SIBM Pune -
When I first visited the SIBM Pune campus for my GE PI WAT (selection process), I simply fell in love with the beauty of this campus. Located on the hills of Lavale, its location and the breathtaking scenic beauty and greenery all around the campus indeed makes my campus unique. The weather here is perfect-a mix of cool breeze, gentle sunshine and drizzly rains. My college is also home to various species of insects, snakes and peacocks. At the same time, it is also unique in many other ways.
There is an idol of Goddess Saraswati right at the entrance of the college, showering blessings over us. We have a rain water harvesting project here that can take care of the water needs of the entire college for three long months. The most important part is that it is entirely a student driven institute, having a student council for every activity including placements. Coming to sports, you name it and we have it. The infrastructure, recreation and wellness centre and library add to the uniqueness.
Which ABG company would you want to work and why?
Out of all the various successful companies that Aditya Birla Group has, I would want to work with the branded apparel sector- the Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited. It features various top brands like Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Allen Solly, Peter England and Forever 21 top name a few. The profits for the company in different quarters talk for themselves. The work culture here is really commendable. There is an amazing learning opportunity, flexible working hours and awesome co-working staff and most importantly it has a decent work-life balance. People say it’s the best place to learn basics about Retail business.
