Ha Ha Ha Ha I really thinking for the past 1 year about what is good at this company. May the sword will always be on your head to through you out from the company so that eventually you will work more. Let's say 16/17 hours a day. They are really worried about your health so they will ask to work at the weekend so that you will not spoil your health at the party on the weekend. They don't want you to be stuck in traffic so they will ask you to stay late at night in the office. They really care about your career so they always ensure you focus on the work and will not have enough time for your personal problems. They also care about doctors in Bangalore, so they really ensure that you have at least monthly visits there. In WLB, L is silent. If you are frustrated with your wife, at least you should join because Photon will help you to get rid of your wife. And there are many more. So join the company and experience the adventure as we at Photon experiencing....Read More

The job is not secure, and employees have to worry about losing their jobs every second. There are no positive feedbacks, only negative ones. The work environment seems to be highly stressful and uncertain, with constant fear of termination among the employees.
It seems that the management is struggling significantly, and there appears to be a lot of internal politics at play. Many employees are facing financial difficulties due to potential layoffs, and there seems to be a lack of substantial projects. Despite this, the recruitment team continues to hire new members, possibly because the organization is currently in the spotlight. Unfortunately, this situation may lead to wasting people's time and resources....Read More

Not much to like about the company
I was blocked from the company unannounced as they have have called up one day out of the blue to get me resigned from the company without any prior notice, and they are not complying to the policy by communicating through the offical channels Just called me and threatened me to get me resigned by myself or else "there will be an issue in the BGV"

Nothing
Photon conducted 3 rounds of interviews, asked me to negotiate my package excessively and made me rely on their offer by discarding other opportunities. Despite this, they failed to release any offer and completely ignored my follow ups via email and calls. This reflects a severe lack of professionalism and respect for candidates time and efforts. Such behaviour unacceptable for organisation claiming to value talent....Read More

I've joined in Photon Interactive 8 months ago and excited to be part of complex projects. I feel my skills are growing day by day as in this 8 months, I have learned more data management and mining techniques. I joined as a fresher and if I can learn more in the next 2 years, I'm confident I will have a great career growth.
Need more support from my team leader

Worst company I have ever seen. They will release the offer and at the date of joining, they will ask us to return back by saying silly reasons. Don't ever accept the Photon's offer, Even if you accept, Don't prefer to join this company. They will play a nice game in your career if you think to join this company.

At Photon Interactive, I really like the teamwork and support from colleagues. There are great chances to learn and grow, and we get to work with new technologies. The environment is exciting and encourages creativity, making it a great place to build my career.
One thing I dislike about working here is the fast-paced environment, which can be a bit overwhelming at times. Deadlines can also be tight, leading to some stress. It would be helpful to have more regular feedback to keep everyone aligned.
