I am an MTech Mechanical student in VJTI. So my review will be from PG mechanical student perspective based on my experience here.

Infrastructure: Firstly the infrastructure in mechanical department is poor and not in par with their private counterparts. However Comps IT department have very good infrastructure. The building itself is crumbling and shows evidence of its age. However renovations are being done now.Toilets, water coolers etc are very few in number. Whole mech dept has only 1 male and 1 female washroom.

Teaching staff:The teaching staff is also OK OK; thats because there are many contractual staff with no teaching experience.

Management administration :Management and administration is simply pathetic.Even for railway pass you will be harassed.If there is some correction or documentation to be done by them for you, they will make you run from pillar to post for signs or HOD, Co-ordinator and what not.

Placements: Placements is the highlights of VJTI. Its simply very good. BTech students rest assured you will land at least 1 job (except some branches like textile, production). Comps IT students get to sit for many companies that too of packages 6 LPA+.Mech branches have relatively lower salaries as no. of 6 LPA+ companies are less. Mtech the placements are similar to BTech but the number of companies are much lower. So packages will be of similar range but no. of companies will be much lower. So placement % for MTech is low. Only top students will land 6 LPA+ jobs rest regular and some will remain unplaced. MTech COMPS IT however have high no of placements.

Students: You will the best and most hardworking students here. Almost every student is a top student of their 12th college (except may be those getting in through reservations). Student are mostly from maharashtra. I have observed that the reservation divide is evident as sometimes the procedures are seperate for reserved and general students (for eg reserved student have seperate set of books reserved for them in library which only they can avail). So in a way the college (probably due to govt norms) induces divide which leads to groupism. Students form seperate groups and theres less mixing.
