Adobe reviews

Adobe is not fast-moving, as other reviewers have noted. GM level responsibility is not delegated in the organization as it is in many other larger companies, but sr. managers, sometimes even the CEO, are inclined to make even small decisions. Adobe is aggressively moving R&D jobs to employees based in India, China, and Romania - making it hard if you are US-based especially on the lower end of the skill level. The annual layoffs mentioned by others are really more about shifting jobs offshore - net employment is still rising. Adobe has not for many years been able to generate meaningful revenue growth organically from new products, so has had to acquire it, first Macromedia and more recently Omniture..

Slower pace of getting things done. Some times the top down directives contribute to a feeling of a less collaborative atmosphere.
