Pros

- Very smart, down to earth people. It is important for me to be at a company where I can learn from the people around me and I have never felt this is more true than at Adobe. - Everyone is very approachable. I have never felt like "I can't talk to that person". - Adobe as a company actually tries *hard* to do the right thing. When social issues have come up (internal or external), there has been a fairly open discussion and the companies actions have been transparent and understandable even when not everyone agrees with them. - We have a huge amount of technical freedom and a rich and deep research organization always coming up with new things to try.

Cons

- We are still struggling to really nail our server offerings on the creative side. This is an opportunity -- if you are someone who shines in that arena we need you! - We are dependent on our platform partners to be able to deliver the best experience to our customers. That can be problematic at times. - We build a lot of products beyond Photoshop and Acrobat. But not everyone outside Adobe knows that and almost everyone is going to ask you to fix a Photoshop/Acrobat problem at some point in your career (probably many times)
