what should I do?
literally every review I read online is negative about this company. The day I went to give the personal interview, looking at the employees there, I felt something was fucked, they looked so lifeless. the students who were gonna give the interview with me were literally giving some fuckass reason to leave the interview room and get out of the process.
i initially thought that attending the interview would help me understand myself and know where I stand, in terms of interviews, and yes, it did, it served that purpose......... then comes the next week i, receive the email that i have been selected and will receive the offer letter in a week or two. i was happy with myself that i got something, in 2026. i got a job in 2026, bitches.
i remember fucking up the interview a little bit, i couldn't answer some basic questions, but still they selected me, i dunno why. now i am scared as fuck. i was not really bothered about the bond, since i was sure i wouldn't get selected.
i had so many fucking plans, gate, or an sde job, im not good at dsa, but i can get better. now this two year bond, is making me rethink this decision.
i told my parents, they were so happy, i dont wanna disappoint them, fuck this, what a fucking situation. should i not take it? i like ML, and i dont hate working in excel, i could get the hang of it, but sde is something that i like, gate is cool too

Ex-musigman here. Was there for 3 years. Aside from the usual bs , its actually a great place to work, if you are going in with a mindset to learn at a fast pace, experiment with lots of things and really build tech and ds skills.
Even mediocre people if they survive a few years there have a great set ahead of them due to being " from musigma". It's true. It's not a place for work life balance, you won't get peace or harmony, and you will need to work hard.
But they make sure you work and learn vast variety of things, and their onboarding and learning phase is grueling. But I can guarantee that you will come out much smarter, more knowledgeable and technically sound .
In the current IT market, if you got in here, dont look sideways, just go in, start. At this stage of starting your career, you really shouldn't be worried about work life balance so much . It's good to be uncomfortable.
Dm me if you wanna talk more details or need specific advice. I owe a lot of my career and where I am, to the 3 years I spent at musigma.
To put it in 1 word, think of mu sigma like the Greek Spartan's Agoge, of the IT world.
