Pros

It offers a generous personal space with individual offices, co-workers are great; people you'd like to hang out with after work. The company has market recognition primarily via Acrobat and Flash.

Cons

The bonus freeze was a real shoddy deal. Moreover layoffs and no long term growth plans have left a bad taste in mouth. No new innovative idea has come out of company after Acrobat.
