Pros

The payment was fair, the benefits were good. Didn't struggle with micromanagement as long as you keep entering your hours.

Cons

Struggle to manage holidays, I lost some days due to client holidays even when I was available to work. If there is no project, you're basically out, and there will not be much will to break the non-compete agreement which will also make you non-eligible to work with client. Nothing unexpected on a consulting company, but it is what it is

Pros

Really good company to work for. Health benefits were great and was able to negotiate a good rate for my contract

Cons

Communication could improve in terms of staying in contact with the contractor. Working with the individual for their next role as the contract is nearing an end would be an area of opportunity as well.

Pros

Can be on interesting projects Some really good people If on correct team can be very good conditions such as remote work

Cons

Zero opportunities for growth Limited to no work/life balance No Severance Do not pay when on the bench Wrong team or manager the hr insanity can make it rough (One year they decided july 4th was not a holiday another they decided to lower the salary and increase the percentage that was bonus effectually giving everyone a pay cut).. Honestly a 2 might being generous but i have worked with some nice people there and the vast majority of the people were nice and good just wanting to get the job done . Any 5s are probably fake or the lucky few that do not have to deal with Photon Hr.
