A college with many placement opportunities, but the placements are average.
Placements: Our college provides great placement opportunities for the students who score well in academics. However, if the academic performance is not good, then the students will only be offered profiles in the sales sector. Our college is better when compared to other colleges regarding job security. The average salary package offered is around 7-8 LPA. Some companies offered a salary package of around 9 LPA. I would recommend you to talk with some alumni while taking your decision to join in this college. If you find a better option than this college, then you can go with that college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is average. The college doesn't have modern infrastructure. You get ample of opportunities to survive and utilise your time on the campus. The college provides good gym facilities. The college also has a well-maintained swimming pool. Hostels were pretty decent with a well-equipped Wi-Fi facility, but the speed of the Wi-Fi is very low. We are the only department to have our own campus, while the rest of the courses will share their campus space.
Faculty: Our college is an excellent place to learn. The college considers the finance part of the course as a major part and operations part as the minor part, but the faculty members and curriculum have a different version of the story to say. Our college's academic cell keeps on working on the current topics and trends. It generally helps to gain certain knowledge like GST, financial modelling, and investment banking, etc.

An honest opinion of a B-School where students learn and grow personally and professionally.
Placements: Our college has good placements records since its inception in the year 1993. In 2017, the average salary package offered was 9 LPA. Major companies come from the BFSI sector; HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, and Axis Bank to name a few. Good companies like Deloitte and Godrej from the manufacturing and consulting sector also visit the college to hire the students. The placements season starts in November, and the college has 100% placements for the last ten years.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good. The campus is small but is good for 600 students. The swimming pool and gym are the best part of the college, except for the academic block. The academic block is a two-storeyed building which has all the classrooms, two computer labs, library, and different departments within three floors. Food in the mess is good, and there a lot of varieties. The hostel is a good place to live where you make friends as well as memories.
Faculty: The external faculty members of SIMS are amazing, and people from different fields with vast experience have much to teach the students. Their real-life experiences and examples make the theory very relatable and easy to understand. Also, the in-house faculty members are very good and are available in the college 24*7 to help and guide the students.
Other: There are a lot of managerial and cultural events which help students to develop their overall personality. Every year, a management fest named Barcode and a cultural fest named Orion are organised in the college with varieties of events covering all the aspects of a 360-degree growth parameter. Also, there are numerous sports activities and state and national level tournaments that give students full-fledged opportunities to learn, grow, and prove their talents.

Review of sims as observed in the last two years.
Placements: Placements are good if consider ROI as a factor. Profiles of the companies coming in the first week are good, after that profiles are usually sales for marketing. Same goes for finance. The highest package was for Google which came for HR (15.39 LPA) and finiq for finance (15+ LPA). The average package for top 150 students was 10.5 LPA, which is good considering fees of 9 lacs. Batch strength is 300.

There are 4 hostels, two for girls and boys each. One health and fitness centre, with modern gym and a swimming pool (25mtrs length). Classroom do not have ACs. There two complabs.
Faculty: Sims is a MBA college
Visiting Faculty is extremely good. They come with good number of years of experience from the corporate. Some Permanent faculty is also ex corporates, coming from well known corporates and MNCs. Teaching pedagogy is usually ppts, case studies only. Exams are in the 60:40 ratio with 60 marks for the internals. It's compulsory to have 90% attendance to sit in the placements. Faculty for marketing, finance, ops is really good. Don't know much about her. We have marketing/operations/finance/hr as major. With which you can take any of them as minors. For example marketing major and finance minor or operations major and marketing minor. There is provision of taking finance core and hr core, where all the 12 subjects the semester will be from finance or hr. Whereas in major minor combination we get 5/6 subjects of major specialisation and 3 subjects of. Minor. 3/4 subjects common. College follows a semester system.

Our college is good for defence personnel students. ROI is good compared to other colleges.
Placements: Senior batch students got placed in good companies like Credit Suisse, Yes Bank, Bank of America, Infosys, etc. They offered the average salary package around 8 LPA, and the maximum package offered was 15 LPA. The summer placements are good for marketing students as more companies visit the campus and offer sales and marketing profiles to placed students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is average as the Wi-Fi connectivity in our college is not that good. The computer labs are well-occupied with Bloomberg terminals, and there are around 120 computers. The library is well-equipped with good books and case studies along with online book bank.
Faculty: The faculty members in the college are not that good, but guest faculty members who have some industry experience are good at explaining the concepts. They have a better view of the company culture and know the requirement of the market. Every year, the course curriculum gets updated, but it is not related to industry standard.
Other: Our college organises events like Barcode and Orion for managerial games.

Good placements, faculty, infrastructure, leisure, and management.
Placements: The placements were very good for my batch with around 90% students placed. The highest package was around 16 LPA.
The average package was around 6-7 LPA.
The average package was around 10 LPA.
Multiple companies from different sectors offering different roles visited the college.
Regarding internships, almost every person who opted for the internship got placed.
Infrastructure: Most of the academic facilities were available including good classrooms, a decent Wi-Fi speed, a huge library, proper labs.
the hostel rooms were average. Good indoor games facilities, a bit less of outdoor sports facilities but a well-maintained swimming pool and gym were available.
Faculty: The faculty is undoubtedly qualified, knowledgeable, and practical.
Industry exposure was a little less though.
Teaching aids -presentations, sessions, role-plays, lectures, etc.
Good learning atmosphere. The college has a good mix of experienced students and those pursuing MBA directly after graduation.
Other: A very good college. Excellent ROI on the fees given. Very hard working placement cell which aims to provide the best companies on campus. If you put in good efforts, you are bound to get a good placement. The fee paid is much lesser than most of the MBA colleges yet the returns are much more. I strongly suggest this college to everyone who is focussed on getting a good corporate exposure. The faculty is very helpful. the seniors also give good mentorship and guide you well.
This is a good place to learn, make good friends and connections, to get a good placement, and to make you competitive in the tough corporate environment.

A college for lifestyle and placement.
Placements: The college gives an ROI on the placement. The average placement goes to 7.5 lacs and the highest goes up to 16 lacs and may go higher if IB firms come to campus. Major placement happens in BFSI. The college has four major streams and the companies tapped by the college comes for all four major streams. With students having an average SNAP score, the placements on campus is much more attractive than lower Tier 2 college and you get to see various profiles in the chunk of companies that visit the campus, from being a brand manager to investment banker to various management training program.
Infrastructure: It is one of the stand alone campus of Symbiosis International University, wherein there is only one college on the campus. The hostel and the college both have Wi-Fi facilities, though the speed of Wi-Fi might be an issue at times. The labs are open throughout the college timing for all the students and the library facility is available till 12 at night for all the students. There are various common study rooms for the students. The college campus has a basketball and a badminton court. The college has a sports cell and the students can represent the college in various sports.
Faculty: One of the good things about the college is the faculty. Even the guest lectures are taken from leading industry professionals. Some of the experienced guest faculty members have good interacting teaching techniques. Every section has 40-50 students and 10-15 faculty members for every section. Industry exposure is maximum in operation branch and minimum in HR.

Excellent college if you consider ROI.
Placements: Almost everyone was placed in our senior batch. The highest package was 15 lac this time due to the bad market situation, and the lowest was 4.5 lac. Many of the top companies visited our campus. Starting from assistant manager, various roles were offered based on their previous work experience and knowledge. Roughly 60 percent of people got an internship from the college this time. The highest stipend was 1.5 lac and the lowest was 10000 rupees.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure in SIMS was very appreciable. Canteen food was much better than most of the colleges. Wi-Fi was good enough. Classrooms and library were really superb. As of then, no such infrastructure issues were there expect one or two internet issues. Our campus was small in area but you can find the best layout with swimming pool and gym facilities inside the campus. We find it one of the best-designed campus. One will fall in love with the campus once he starts living in it.
Faculty: You will find friendly and best faculty in SIMS. The curriculum was good. Though it looks hectic, that's the way it should be. The faculty to student ratio differed, but on an average, it was around 1:40. The curriculum was helpful and I personally found it very helpful.

SIMS Pune- A brief review.
Placements: For PGDM, there is no placement drive organized as all the people pursuing this course already have a job. People applicable for this course should be executive somewhere. Many of my friends are in the regular course and I heard that big names come for hiring and the package go around 5-15 lakh per annum.
Infrastructure: The campus is one of the best things we had here. The campus has many computer labs. All classrooms have a projector, screen, and white board. The library operates from morning 9-11. Gym and swimming pool facilities are also there. Guest house for parents and students. Complete hostel facility is also there.
Faculty: The curriculum is always related to daily operations. The faculty members that we had were experienced employees of big organizations. They delivered their experience as well as new fundamentals of the industry. The curriculum is planned in such a way that what you are learning today benefits in your future lectures.
Other: Nice infrastructure. Great facilities. Overall, a good institute for hiring for your studies. In the center of PMC and PCMC, so the faculty is easily approachable. Study with lots of practical knowledge helps to understand real life business skills.
Cantonment area so no risk of any crime.
