Vantaggi

There are very few. They have nice facilities and the pay is about average for this area. Many people have heard of the company. You can purchase their software at a discount for non-commercial use.

Svantaggi

The management at Adobe makes poor decisions and lacks any well defined direction. They have a vague idealistic thought of where they want to be, but without any really idea of how they could get there. The management also makes it hard to succeed at your job and set you up to fail. Their products are old and aging and they aren't able to come up with any new useful ones out side of trying to acquire other companies. Their products also have a reputation for being bloated, slow, and poorly written. The HR department is by far the least helpful out of any of the companies I've ever worked for and is generally very rude. There is also a lot of dishonesty and disrespect at the company.

Vantaggi

* Refreshing focus on employee wellness * Brilliant colleagues * Compelling problems on interesting tools * Good work/life balance culture... generally (see cons) I've been at a few big tech companies and Adobe is one of my favorites. I feel empowered to make impactful changes here, I'm constantly stretching myself in fun ways, and the products we make are incredible. Product and engineering have big dreams, and all the resources we need to realize them.

Svantaggi

* Big time crunch culture around arbitrary goals By far my biggest disappointment has been just how hard product pushes on big projects with arbitrary deadlines and difficult scope. It turns into cutting corners and delivering sub-par experiences even though we absolutely have the talent and capability to make some exceptional things if we just let the dang thing bake a few more months. I'd be more impressed with the tight clip if the goals were reasonable for good business reasons, but as far as I can tell the reason usually boils down to "some high-level manager wanted X and thought Y sounded like a good target date". * Comp growth leaves something to be desired. Raises feel pretty flat, though it's not the worst thing since stock rewards can be pretty good as appropriate for performance. Career progression is pretty good here too - I just find it odd how stale the base pay increases are year to year.
