WORST COMPANY TO WORK

Pros

There is no good reasons to work in this company.

Cons

Always bad experience I faced from the time I joined this company. They do not bother about employees. They bother only about rules. Photon defined their own rules and regulations and made it as a policy. The company working hour is 10 hours per day. We need to fill the Timesheet everyday, But no use of filling it. All of your salary is calculated by referring Access Log Tool. Access Log Tool also not generating reports properly. If we complaint about that tool, they dont bother about it. They will deduct salary. Also we cannot assure that When they will hold salary, when they will deduct salary. I am 10 year experienced Technical Lead. When I joined Photon, I was happy. After few days, I came to know about HR policies Which is Very very Worst. Project Management also very very worst. Everyday I used to see employees are resigning job. Also heard from some employees they are going to quiet soon. In my 10 years experience I never seen this kind of worst company. ONLY ONE WORD ABOUT THIS COMPANY IS , ..... IF U WANTED TO SPOIL YOUR LIFE, CAREER... YOU CAN JOIN.

Pros

For the past six yrs, I have been comfortable working here. There are a lot of old timers in the company. Good business growth over the last few years, top Fortune 100 clients to work with.

Cons

Work life balance is tough as the working hours are more, can have more benefits given to the employees. Office culture is aggressive and some times it becomes tough to adhere to this for others. No cab, no coffee vending machines.
