Interns and Experienced folks,Please share your thoughts on the culture and pay

Posting in another category to get more feedback.

I’m building something outside of work, and I’m putting almost all my after-office hours and weekends into it. I pay my interns ₹10,000-₹15,000/month from my own earnings , offer flexible hours, no micro-management, and they can take leaves when needed. The work we’re doing is meaningful, but I’ve noticed many seem more interested in the stipend and certificate than actually contributing.

Thanks

Like you, I faced similar challenges and ultimately had to abandon the project due to financial constraints. I've learned that when people's motivations don't align, projects can stall. The key takeaway from this experience was the importance of finding like-minded individuals who share the same vision and are willing to invest their time and effort into collaboratively building something together.
