Pros

- Benefits are good, especially 6 months of maternity leave

Cons

- Too much of micro management, Manager monitors you to the level of how many PR's you submitted, how many comments you received on each PR, how many PR's did you review, how many comments did you add to each PR - I worked in the creative cloud team and the work expectations are too much - They talk about gender equal etc but I don't see it practically, If you are a working mother or female in general, what you speak weights less - They do not take 360degree feedback during performance reviews, manager just takes the review from one senior engineer whom he believes and your performance is measured based on your relationship with that sr engineer. - Manager do not say it, but they expect ppl to finish ur sprint work (how much ever time it takes, they only need end result)as well as spend some extra time and contribute to projects outside what you do and also do regular brown bag sessions and presentations, in short work for more than 50hrs per week and thats what they consider to promote you. - If the manager does not like anything in you, they put on PIP(performance improvement plan), and u should agree to whatever they say, and if they decide to fire you, whatever you try to improve they don't even consider it. - So, if they put you on PIP, better quit the company and move to something else - Overall, bad experience in my entire 15 years of career.

Pros

If you can get in at a decent salary, you'll not get less than 2.5% COL increase yearly, usually 3%. Great and inexpensive benefits

Cons

Good luck getting off your team after a few years. Virtually impossible to leave your team if you're doing a good job. Managers will talk negatively about you to potential managers ruining any chance of getting off that team so you'll stay. Also, as a remote employee, it's impossible to meet other managers so even harder to build relationships with other teams to move to. Overall, unless you're in or near a corporate office, you'll never move up. Digital Experience Cloud is MESSED UP! Not sure how they've gotten so far without being sold off. It's a hot mess over there. Multiple solutions in the same space, no direction and even less leadership that knows what they're doing. Honestly, it's terrible.
