Pros

No pros to mention unless you love to be treated like a slave.

Cons

This is a typical moneylender type of company which searches for needy people. Gives them a job and insults them like crazy. It is run like a small shop by the ceo and cto and attrition rate is more than 100%. People last 7-8 months on average. When i was in the company i was forced to give a 5 star rating by my manager. Look at most of the 5 star ratings. They are typically on the same day or 1-2 days apart when they force the fake rating drive.

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.
