IIT-Roorkee is one of the old IITs and one of the well-reputed institutes in India, so you don't have to worry about placements. According to the NIRF's ranking, it is ranked at 6th position which is really impressive. Let's go through its placement report of 2016-17 for Electrical engineering. The total percentage of placed students from EE is around 73% (this is low because the calculations also include students who opted out of placements for higher studies or some other reasons. If we neglect those students it will be above 85%). Going forward, around 22% of the placed students got into core jobs which is really a good metric. Around 65% got into IT jobs while around 13% got into consulting/finance jobs. The average CTC for EE was around 13.41 LPA which again is a good metric. So, the placement scenario looks good for EE in IIT-Roorkee as such. Don't join any branch or college just because of its placements. Try to find what you are passionate about and pursue that branch.
