Thank you for your feedback and review. We are happy to know that you like to work in flexible hours with us and glad to know that you are satisfied with your compensation. Late night company cabs are available and will be planned based on project requirement and intimation from the employee. We also have an online portal for the same. Otherwise Photon's location is well connected by transport. Also there is a full time cafeteria available with fresh beverages, snacks, lunch and dinner. We appreciate you sharing the feedback with us and it would be great if you throw some more detailed insights by connecting with our HR team - team-hrbp@photoninfotech.net. We are always looking at ways we can make improvements and make Photon a better place to work.

Pros

Really good company to work for. Health benefits were great and was able to negotiate a good rate for my contract

Cons

Communication could improve in terms of staying in contact with the contractor. Working with the individual for their next role as the contract is nearing an end would be an area of opportunity as well.

Pros

Can be on interesting projects Some really good people If on correct team can be very good conditions such as remote work

Cons

Zero opportunities for growth Limited to no work/life balance No Severance Do not pay when on the bench Wrong team or manager the hr insanity can make it rough (One year they decided july 4th was not a holiday another they decided to lower the salary and increase the percentage that was bonus effectually giving everyone a pay cut).. Honestly a 2 might being generous but i have worked with some nice people there and the vast majority of the people were nice and good just wanting to get the job done . Any 5s are probably fake or the lucky few that do not have to deal with Photon Hr.
