Pros

Adobe is highly regarded by the IT Analyst community, their stock has increased 3x over the past 4 years and their products mostly work.

Cons

Highly matrixed and political in its organization. Most decisions are made to maximize the fiefdoms, not the overall business or customer. They are really uninterested in people joining the company to improve their approach - though hiring many people, they increasingly turn to veterans for leadership roles.

Pros

The people at Adobe are an incredibly smart and creative bunch. Overall benefits package is excellent, including sabbaticals every five years. Good ongoing learning and development opportunities. It's common to move around to different groups so there's opportunities to try new things.

Cons

There's a lot of opportunities to make lateral moves, but it's difficult to get beyond first line manager status. Some execs can be very hands on with projects at a micro level (e.g. feature and UI decisions). Re-orgs and small layoffs happen frequently.
