Adobe Software Development Engineer reviews

A lot of meetings, processes can be beaureaucratic sometimes

First, managers are managers not because of talent but based on number of years in company. Zero technical knowledge and the best workaround to hide their incapability is to abuse team members to ensure people do not reach out to them. IDS is one such department, senior managers are busy in playing favourites and if you are not in the list no matter how good you are, you won’t get credit for your work. For good work, it’s the managers who did well, something going not as per expectations, you did wrong. You come with an idea, managers will take the credit and then ask their favourite people to work on it and you the original person is sidelined. Toxic culture.
