      Divorcing Adobe

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - lots of time off and flex time, work at home - free drinks and snacks - sabbatical every 5 years - ESPP better than other companies

      Cons

      Adobe has changed a lot, keep disappointing me and lying to me. Stopped paying quarterly profit sharing(that was a part of my income) and pay more to CEO, more and more off share, layoff US workers every year, politics and going more toward top-down. Coworkers only thinking about their job security. No passion to work.

      The Gang That Can't Shoot Straight

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits- top of the line health insurance, 401K match, and more. Working from home is permitted. Also comfortable offices and decent onsite food.

      Cons

      Adobe has lost its way. Top management is out of touch and focused completely on Wall Street, not on pleasing the customers. Middle management is so focused on keeping their jobs they are scared to do anything that will kill the cash cow. Front-line managers are unable to effect change and don't get much respect. Layoffs are an annual event now, and each September on the company slowly grinds to a halt as the rank and file waits to find out whether they'll have a job the next year. It's terrible for motivation and also encourages short-term thinking, since nobody can assume that either the strategic direction nor their jobs will be the same over the long haul.

      Pros

      Work- life balance Most of the people around are smart Flexi hours for work Policy for taking transfer within the teams

      Cons

      Too many managers, it has began to hurt the organization.Also, the best performer may not be the best manager, a simple fact the company has not realized. Too much stress on time in office etc, redundant practices. HR is powerless
