Losing its luster (Omniture business unit)

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benfits. Divison is growing, though not as quickly as before. There are many great people to work with (my immediate team is really, truly fantastic). Nice location.

Cons

New building is an AWFUL workspace - it tries to be trendy, but completely fails functionally. There has always been a certain mild cultural bankruptcy which is hard to pin down. This was once overcome by the excitement and growth of Omniture, but no longer. It has become much more top heavy, big-brother, and over-environmentalist. If you like that kind of thing, this is the place for you!

A company that competes with itself

Business Outlook

Pros

* Great people * Good opportunities if you act on them * Interesting projects & technology

Cons

Corporate politics reign at Adobe. Given it's size and history, there is a lot of bad blood between different groups. This leads to different divisions creating similar technologies, instead of investing in a single best-of-breed technology. Don't take this to mean that the company is on the decline... I just believe that it can be so much better.
