      Very smart people; very unfocused management

      Pros

      The technical people, computer scientists and architects are some of the smartest and most passionate people I've ever worked for in over 20 years in software companies. There is an expert in anything - you're never more than 2-3 phone calls or emails from getting a very authoritative answer to any question.

      Cons

      There have been layoffs in 5 of the last 7 years. There is no job security, and no long term plans. Its virtually impossible to plan out more than 2-3 months of a project, and there is no vision on what products to build, what customers need. In the last ~3 years this has become one of the most chaotic, me-too organizations.

      It used to be a great company, sad to see what it is today.

      Pros

      Great people, excellent benefits and work environment (offices), a lot of great products

      Cons

      Surrounded by a lot of unhappy people, frustrated by lack of innovation, lead by inept senior leaders, short sighted thinking - quarterly results more important than the future, very limited opportunities for women in some groups

      Cons

      Very limited professional growth opportunities unless you plan to retire working at Adobe Kind of working in a huge government run organization with lot of inefficient processes Salary for a similar title and work varies over a huge range Management is not serious about employee development
