Pros

The products are well received by customers but are definitely starting to slip. Stock is flying, espp program excellent as well as benefits.

Cons

Where do I begin. In my twenty plus years of sales this place was the most toxic and frustrating for ridiculous reasons. The management team creates an unnecessary toxic environment that prevents effective selling and supporting of customers. The amount of internal work far outweighs the selling that should be going on to the customer base. The aggressive nature of the sales management team creates an ugly environment, that then gets pushed on to the customers. Some of the management is talented but feels intimidated by upper management and that is pushed to the salesforce. There are unqualified people in management that micromanage to a level I have never seen. The worst part is having commission taken back when a customer doesn't renew that you didn't sell in the first place! Numerous good reps and managers have left for this reason. I can't stress this enough, stay away from this toxic environment

Pros

Pay well, development teams are great. Development Laptops are awesome. You have access to all the product details. Work environment is highly polished.

Cons

A serious amount of politics and unethical practices. You're often stuck in a position on a client site. Managers don't listen to employees and can't be trusted, project managers are even worse. New ideas are ignored. Often strong armed into long commutes, 12+ hour days, etc... Sales will do anything for a deal. Everybody is a "architect" or "principal" even if they've never programmed in AEM. I seriously regret joining Adobe.
