So I joined Lawsikho as an intern in their Test - Prep team back in January 2022 where I was responsible for preparing mocks, daily GK Quizzes, Notes etc., for even Judiciary and SEBI - Law Officer level exams. Yes, you read it right! A 3rd year law student, that too from a very average private college preparing the material you rely upon for cracking exams when you paid more than 1 Lakh for their courses.
You must be thinking that for all this hassle, I would be getting at least 10K per month as stipend. Well no, I got barely 5K per month, and if I took a leave for 1 day, I would lose out on my pay. In late 2022, when I asked for pay revision, I was told that I'd be getting 8K per month but I'd have to work for 7 hours daily, 30 days a month without any leave and if I failed to "justify" my 7 hour output, I would have to take a pay reduction.
Guess what? I never took that increment and finally left the organisation in late 2023 with the same pay (5K) which I was drawing at the beginning of my tenure, working 5-6 hours per day and preparing material for courses worth lakhs!

He forgets that his venture will get based on what he is paying.
He pretends that he supports Tier 3 city students/graduates. Meanwhile, it's nothing but a cost-cutting method.
How in the world he will get world-class work, if he is paying 10-12k!
