Can learn new technologies
No job security - they used to terminate the employees anytime without prior notice, no work-life balance - have to work min of 10 hrs 30 mins, too much politics - an employee has to say 'yes' always for what the superior says
I learned some new technologies

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"

Initially it was the same old stuff, but after I started speaking up, I was given ownership and responsibility. This has given me the opportunity to interact with decision makers, giving me confidence.

Nothing, Worst company to work
While recruiting, HR recruiter will target immediate joiners only so that they will fall in the trap easily. Even in probation period, you need to serve 3 month's notice. No Bench policy, HR will fire immediately without notice/pay. HR, Project Manager doesn't respond to your mail, chat for any Query or for Onboarding to project. Employees need to be in the ODC for 8.50 hours otherwise you will get mail to apply for LOP. Employee should maintain 6 productive hours otherwise you will get mail to apply for LOP if you fail to provide proper justification. No Shift allowance/CAB even you work in night shifts. Micromanagement with Pro hance tool No Work-life Balance, Worst company policies & culture, No Job Security. Company has implemented the policies primarily to create pressure or stress for the employees....Read More
