Pros

The camaraderie here is remarkable. I had the best two years here at Photon because of the people and the management, they handle the teams and everyone else pretty swell. The work itself is challenging on its own especially when everyday is somehow new from the last. Everyday felt like a day for learning. It’s like the hunger games in here but not as hostile, you learn you survive with the help of your friends and the whole company excels. I had quite a time in Photon, I may say that it was the most fun that I had in my recent memory.

Cons

It’s like the hunger games in here but not as hostile, you learn you survive with the help of your friends and the whole company excels.

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.
