Pros

They give jobs to MBA freshers

Cons

1. Learning: They are mostly into average websites / web portals. Mobile is just a show as only 1% of them work on mobile apps. As a Business analyst you will learn nothing except designing wireframes 2. Politics: The management is filled with less experienced folks who have risen because of contacts. Hence they are immature in dealing with big customers and employees

Thank you for your feedback and review. Yes, as you stated we provide ample opportunities for freshers and laterals. But I would like to differ with your opinion about the quality of work that we do. We are the world’s largest and fastest growing provider of omnichannel and digital experiences working with over 37% of the Fortune 100 as their digital innovation partner. Speaking about the growth of managers there is completely a different equation of people moving up the career ladder with lesser experience. As Photon believes in performance and potential rather than years of experience, the kind of rigorous growths are possible for top performers (again performance is objectively reviewed, not as per the manager's recommendation) 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

Pros

Something to learn everyday. Senior management has an open door policy which is good. The pay scale is good comparatively.

Cons

The food quality that is served in cafeteria is pathetic. Work timing is 10 hrs Minimum! For Christs sake try and stick to Market standards .

We are glad that you have had a great work and learning experience at Photon. However, Photon as a policy follows working hours as per the market standard. Work hours may vary based on project dependencies but this is not followed as a standard practice. On our facilities part, we have a qualified vendor providing breakfast, lunch and dinner in our cafeteria. We also have a quick response team in our facilities department to handle issues regarding the quality. We strongly urge you to reach out us @ team-hrbp@photoninfotech.net discuss further on your views. We look forward to hear from you. Thank you.
