Photon

If the constant threat of losing your job, freezing your pay and daily vulgarity laced screaming is your thing then working for this company is your dream job.

The ownership and management is comprised of arrogant tyrants who would rather lead by causing panic, fear and sheer chaos rather than foster a constructive culture of openness built upon mutual respect. It’s a leadership style that permeates through the entire company—creating a negative organizational sub-culture that institutes pessimism, emotional distress and poor self-esteem.

Many company policies are made on the fly to deter independent decisions/thinking yet you’re left to largely figure out the inner workings without a hint of support. Beware of bait-and-switch tactics after you’ve been hired and consign any thoughts about having a life outside working hours, which mind you can be literally 24hrs/day. When you’re hired be prepared to become a slave of the company, which is worth no amount of money they may be willing to offer. 

Management consistently walks a fine line between legal and ethical rights, forget about moral rights, and if you’ve worked within this organization for a year, you’re considered a veteran as most don’t last nearly this long. As an aside, their contractual engagements with the companies they service typically last about the same time. It’s surprising companies would consider/continue working with Photon unless there is an existing relationship with someone in the head office. 

Employees are often berated in front of their peers using language generally reserved for sailors. Firings have occurred in the presence of colleagues much the same manner and are usually without plausible circumstance.

The HR department writes bogus positive reviews to deceive would be candidates into thinking the company is one of the best you’ll ever work. They’ll tell you they’re a U.S. company but that couldn’t be further from the truth, as the core operation is maintained offshore. The reality is they are an offshore development company that services U.S. clientele.

At this point it probably goes without saying, unless you are absolutely desperate for a job and love to feel inferior, I wouldn’t give this company a second thought. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere, it’s not worth your livelihood. Consider yourself warned.

The positive about Photon is that they have some interesting projects and some good clients.  That aside, this is a company that is running full speed to make $$$ for the senior leadership team.  On the employee side, they do not care at all about people's careers or goals.  I saw them mistreat a few long-time/loyal employees for very small "infractions".  They are looking for people who like to be told what to do.  On the client side, I saw them over-bill clients for work.  I also saw the leadership team very involved in fighting fires because of delivery issues.  My personal opinion is that you would be doing yourself a huge favor favor by looking elsewhere for a job.

A typical day involved project delivery and teamwork, where I learned valuable technical and problem-solving skills in a collaborative culture with supportive management; the hardest part was project uncertainty, while the most enjoyable part was working with new technologies and solving technical challenges.

Most unprofessional management 
/leadership team. Little to no coaching and sink or swim when thrown into first project. Horrible abusive language from leadership to anyone that unfortunately has to be face to face with them, lie constantly to clients about Photon’s capabilities, abuse people that go above and beyond, no personal life, zero perks outside of medical insurance, do your homework and move on

The technology is very interesting and changes from one client to another. I actually learned a lot about natural language processing and chat bots, as well as a more in  depth understanding of omni channel architecture and digital transformation.

cutting edge project experience is Positive during your work life in Photon. mandatory  alternative saturdays work is not appreciated.   People don’t enjoy working here. They at stressed out working here. 

I am encouraged by leadership to be creative and problem-solve using current resources as well as shifting paradigms. My work is challenging in a good way, and I have an opportunity to learn every day. The team is extremely talented and I have a tremendous amount ion confidence in my coworkers and leadership. 

Overload tasks, too much of pressure, no respect for social life, work on weekends, 
You will be hired with a very big position/name and will be performing a small role in the client location - false promise

Poor management with no experience leaderships. Intimidation is management trademark.  Very unprofessional to staffs and customers.  Becareful working here!!!

 I do not like the work culture here. No one be in touch with you.
It depends upon the client like team and the project you are working on.
Worked more than 8 hours a day but no one will recognize you.
