Pros

Great products, well known brand on the market, keep innovating and looking into the future People that got onboard long time ago are usually really skilled and willing to share their knowledge

Cons

Lots of great people within the channel organization have been dismissed recently, the atmosphere is getting worse and worse as people fear the end of this selling organization. The management doesn't make you grow and learn they just focus on their own achievements so you are required to execute just how your manager wants, no space for initiatives and growth. Your voice won't be listened and be sure you are not a priority. However the more you are hyprocrite and "loving" your manager, the better you are seen and get promoted. It results in having very pood mid-managers that are narrow minded and without any leadership. I believe it depends from department to department however that is for sure it used to be better some years ago and some bottom to up feedback should be collected to improve the situation.

Pros

There are many great and good engineers in Adobe Romania. This means that the bar regarding the expected quality and efficiency is quite high. Most engineering managers level 1 are quite OK in terms of supporting the engineers and managing the team dynamics. It is not that easy to promote in some directions eg. from individual contributor (software engineer) to engineer manager. You can move internally once you have a good reputation - it is not that hard to change projects. The benefits are probably the best you can get in Romania.

Cons

The office doesn't really have product ownership which means that it is outsourcing type of work more or less. Decisions made in USA, teams in Romania execute. There are lots of different teams and the pace is quite different. But overall it is hard to keep a work-life balance. Especially if you have to work directly with US, you'll have lots of evening calls/meetings. Senior management lacks leadership, creating and explaining the strategy to individual contributors.
