Pros

Exciting technologies, nice people, respect and excellent treatment of employees from management. Hours are flexible. Many training opportunities, and outstanding benefits.

Cons

Adobe is still a small company and is competing with giants like Microsoft, Apple, and Google. Employees know they must keep Adobe strong and competitive, and being acquired would be a nightmare. This, however, creates a constant pressure on everyone that they have to work hard, sometimes too hard.

Pros

You get to work on products that people LOVE using. For people who are married and have kids, Adobe is probably as good of a place you'll find in Silicon Valley balancing work-life.

Cons

Adobe has gotten to become quite BIG company especially after the acquisition of Macromedia. Traditionally, Adobe has been a very conservatively managed company and leads to analysis paralysis for every decision and moves slowly... Adobe was "late" to the Internet, and is still sort of catching up. Adobe traditionally likes to make small "bets" rather than back a few big ones, though Adobe is spending a lot of resources on Adobe-Integrated-Runtime (AIR).
