They are asked to resigned from employees, if employees not resigned they will black mail like not provide feedback and proper experience letters are not given. Here don't have much projects they will recruit 20-30 people per project, if project completed they will terminate

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

All the positive reviews are paid not genuine. Don't believe them and avoid joining. Be cautious!
Dislikes
The company has no work culture and lacks any employee policies, worst place to work, zero job security. They can fire any time without serving notice period even the won't give one week time.
Forcing employees to submit resignation emails under duress. Over the past three months more than 1000 EMPLOYEES are FIRED. Avoid joining this company. They are using your relieving and final settlement as blackmail to pressure you. They have no bench policy, and if you're on the bench even for just one day, it's considered a LOSS OF PAY.They keep firing internal employees while constantly posting job openings and hiring new people from outside - playing employees life constantly - DON'T JOIN...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.
Dislikes
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

Dislikes
The company is not employee oriented company. They just money minded.. they hire for Billing purpose only.. they has supporting projects only no new projects.. so they hire u for just 2-6 months of the project. If supports ends they allegedly tell you to put paper.. they didn't even give notice period.. no benching also.. so whatever you heard about this company that's all true.. Don't join this company.. just attend the interview get offer letter then join to better company.. If any positive reviews You have seen that might be a paid review....Read More

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.
Dislikes
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.
