Pros

My colleagues are out-of-this-world technically skilled, but are almost universally humble and generous with their time. The company's response to COVID has been both humane (giving us company-wide time off on a regular basis) and customer-centered (focusing only on the priorities that'll help our users the most). When people take time off, they're truly off; on my team, we don't come back to missed Slack messages on Monday mornings (or even many weekday mornings). For the summer shutdown (a week) and winter shutdown (another week), email is truly silent as everyone takes real time away from work, and we all come back ready to go again. I get to work in extremely technically advanced spaces while keeping time for myself and my family, and am ecstatic to have landed at a company that supports both.

Cons

It's a big company, so things can move slowly; the focus on robustness means that you're unlikely to start working in the latest-and-greatest UI frameworks or to integrate exciting betas of third-party products. Adobe makes up for this by being fast on hardware adoption, though – the products have got to work on a variety of chips for extremely advanced levels of work (hardware demos often show off how well a new machine runs Adobe editing software), so the research teams get to skate out ahead of the rest of us.
