Our Culture

A different kind of trading firm

At Photon, we’ve redesigned what it means to work in trading. You’ll find yourself in an environment where intellectual curiosity meets genuine community, where your ideas shape our future, and where success is measured not just in numbers, but in personal growth.

While we share the same playing field as other trading firms, we’ve taken a distinctly different approach to how we operate.

We foster an employee-driven culture that actively supports your growth, both professionally and personally. We’ve created an environment where people can collaborate freely, communicate openly, and be creative. We provide genuine work-life balance that helps you thrive, not just at work, but in all aspects of your life.

Employee Driven

Our people-first environment isn't just talk; it's backed by concrete support and real outcomes:

• Make real decisions from day one – our grads join trading and tech desks within months.
• Flexible work and parental leave help parents sustain fulfilling careers.
• Connect through team sports and social events.

Adaptability

Our ability to handle a diversified set of asset classes sets us apart from the competition. Having navigated multiple economic cycles, we have continuously adapted, emerging stronger and more resilient among the survivors.

We value our employees and ensure equal care for everyone, offering the flexibility to work from various offices across India including Gurgaon, Mumbai, and with plans to expand to Hyderabad and Bangalore soon.

This geographical flexibility allows our team members to choose the work environment that best suits their needs while maintaining our collaborative culture across all locations.

Approach to Work

We embrace modern ways of working while recognising that trading requires an on-site presence. For those in non-trading roles, we offer flexible arrangements that combine the benefits of remote and office work.

Our experience shows that a 3-2 split between office and home creates the ideal balance. This approach lets you manage your work around your life while maintaining the human connections that make Photon special.

You’ll have the freedom to complete your non-trading work when and where you’re most productive, supported by an environment that empowers you to succeed on your own terms.

EMPLOYEE-DRIVEN

Our people-first environment isn’t just talk—it’s backed by concrete support and real outcomes:

• You’ll make real decisions from day one—our graduates join trading and technology desks within months, not years.
• Team members are encouraged to implement their own ideas and trading strategies backed by our resources.
• Our parental leave policy and flexible working approach has supported many parents in maintaining thriving careers.
• Regular social events and team sports help you build meaningful connections beyond your desk.

We understand that exceptional results come from a supported, energised team—and we put this belief into action every day.
