      Pros

      Recognizable name on the creative services side. Has a lot of smart people working at the company. Great salary and benefits.

      Cons

      Very little collaboration happening internally between the different platform teams. Management was in constant influx of change which was not a good sign.

      Okay Tech company to work for....but there are much better

      Pros

      - Whole company shuts down the week of Christmas & New Year's and again the week of July 4th. Makes it much easier to unplug and come back without a tsunami of emails, etc. - Work life balance is decent for a tech company. - Sabbatical program for employees who have worked there for 5 years (one month off paid). - Adobe is very open to people working remotely and a lot of people do.

      Cons

      - Lack of job security: Adobe is known for having layoffs on an almost annual basis. People start getting nervous about their jobs come evert January. You're unlikely to see it coming. - Benefits aren't on par with other tech companies such as Google, Facebook or even newer companies like AirBnB. - Summer & Christmas shutdowns put pressure on people to not take vacations outside of those two scheduled weeks.

      Good place to work.. just stay out of IT

      Pros

      Great company culture and benefits and work life balance.

      Cons

      Terrible upper management style. Company goes through a massive re-org every 18-24 months. They reduce their workforce by 10% only to hire that many people back in the next quarter. To move up you have kiss ass and play the dirty corporate politics "Indian" style. Your success is directly proportional to how many high-ranked Indians you know here. If you happen to be an Indian, great place to work! If you are not an India, stay away!! And stay away from Adobe IT. That is where careers go to die!
