CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good place to learn and they can match other offers. You will be never be idle and have constant work

Cons

If you are used to a typical Consulting firm culture, don't join here. You won't survive more than 6 six months. Management has a lot of arrogance and bias. They treat people like a sack of potatoes without any humanitarian concern

Photon Response

Dear Photonite, As you have rightly mentioned growth opportunities at Photon are in plenty, during your stint you would have observed Photon inclined as performance driven which is why there is no room for slack. People hoping for idle time during work hours might not be suitable to work with us as we work on the cutting edge tech initiatives. We notice your feed back is unsubstantiated, Photon fosters a work environment that encourages open and honest communication hence we would like to understand your feedback in detail. Kindly write to team-hrbp@photoninfotech.net to address this at the earliest.

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.

Business Outlook

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.
