Pros

Odd working hours Least salary compared to market

Cons

I had completed two technical rounds and two HR round with photon and all the salary discussions happened , even they verified my service history online by screen sharing in epfo portal. they promised me to release offer but they never issued , making the entire process feel like a complete waste of time. Despite reaching out to the HR team, I received no response.
