Great team culture, limited and slow promotion opps

Pros

Adobe has a great team culture and is very employee friendly with regard to benefits, compensation and days off.

Cons

Promotions are politically based rather than on merit. Internal job postings are a waste of time and usually the hiring manager already has someone handpicked for the role. Leadership is tone deaf to concerns and has a “take it or leave it” attitude.
