Pros

I have been here for the last few years and I am still looking forward for the things that photon can give me. I have been part of several projects and teams through out the years that I have been here and still Photon provides me the best and the newest information when it comes to Mobile technology. Photon exposes me to the biggest names in the IT industry, our clients are mostly in the Fortune 500 list and working on their development is quit thrilling since my enthusiasm is directly derived from knowing what is new on the mobile scene.

Cons

With the amount of work being thrown at us it would certainly help a lot if there is an adequate recreational activity in the office. Plus definitely need coffee machines.

Pros

There are a lot of opportunities here at Photon, the best is the opportunity to interact directly with clients, some of their clients are on the Fortune 500 list. The pay is good above industry average. Photon is a good place to test both your skills and your resolve when it comes to the mobile technologies.

Cons

High expectations, don’t expect it to be a 9 to 5 job. You will be responsible for the work that goes to the client so expect some music from the management if you don’t deliver right. Roles are flexible thus can be bit confusing at times.

Pros

I worked for Photon for almost 2 years and I can say that it was very satisfying to be a part of a pretty dynamic work environment. The clients are big companies and competitive. The compensation and the benefits are satisfactory; My advise will be stay here and learn as much as you can.

Cons

The whole office kind of focused on the facilities that is work related, maybe that is why they seemed to overlook the facilities needed in the cafeteria. The cafeteria is not that large so there are times that it can get crammed with people.
