Will get to handle a small team on your own.

Pros

At Photon, you get to work on omnichannel projects for large US clients. It’s a fairly mid size IT company so you will get the opportunity to interact with CTO and CEO of the company and learn about their vision. Best place for an MBA to join as you will be put into leadership positions instantly and will get to handle a small team on your own.

Cons

Roles can be flexible and can get confusing, HR should send detailed JDs for each role to avoid confusion. Overall the top management is too busy and can skip town halls sometimes which can be frustrating for employees as the information doesn’t reach them in time

Pros

Get to work on cutting edge mobile projects on iOS, Windows and Android platforms. Double increment cycle helps increase CTC in one year. Good onsite opportunities for technical folks. If you can showcase your ability to handle various business situations you will get promoted soon

Cons

The work can be a little stressful and fast, but it is rewarding. Lack of recreational areas and coffee machines.
