Pros

Work life balance ,great people ,sharp minds ,good benefits

Cons

November is always in fear ,even though you are strong performer in team if your management does not like you they will use this time to kick you out without giving any reason. Every year they reduce the workforce (100-150 people) and spend more time and money to hire new people from outside ,this reduction mainly happens in North America. Not clear direction from upper management.

Pros

- very little stress - great work life balance (out by 5pm, in after 9) - great benefits - most people are nice - free food/soda - If you are looking for decent pay, no stress, consistent work, hard to go wrong

Cons

- Absolutely no correlation between ability and position in the company - Far more politics then other companies I have worked with - Some of the least skilled people I have worked with - Terrible infighting between groups - No one is held accountable for anything - MANY MANY layers of management for no reason - If you want a position that pushes you, makes you better, will allow opportunity and growth, not the place for you

Cons

- Poor senior management (change directions every few months - terrible) - Poor product quality - terrible bugs still in the product after 5 years - Layoffs every year - talented folks get let go while lazy political types stay on - well documented - Adobe is in a nosedive in terms of direction - poor place for secure career - Vacation policy is directed by each manager - terrible execution - Get ready for a layoff about a year after you join! Fun Stuff!
