Pros

Great company, some really great people, great products, stock is at an all time high, having a hard time filling in the minimum word requirements here....

Cons

Not at all a place where women have a voice or have growth & opportunities that men have. Horribly political, where you’re judged & treated by your place on the org chart, not at all on your merits. Tolerance for hostility, sexual harassment (reported & no action was taken).

Pros

Adobe is the most beautiful fools gold I have ever experienced. They poached me and many others I know from stable positions at other companies. Threw money at us to be on a team that was constant chaos and dysfunction. Only to lay off everyone SIX MONTHS later. Run. Don’t walk away from this nightmare. Unless you are a good ole boy fresh out of college. They love them. Salary was amazing but to be without a job wasn’t worth leaving a stable mid-range level position at another company.

Cons

Everything. When you think of Adobe, you think of photoshop and illustrator as well as tech and stability. They don’t want us talking about it, but they are internally very cishet WHITE Mormon male focused. If you do not fit this or agree with their values, you WILL be removed. I have seen it time and time again. I have heard that the managers are secretly pretty discriminatory towards people of color and lgbt. The people of color in management positions are few and far between. If there is one, like one of the directors in mid-market, they are tap dancing for said cishet folks above them. Not progressive as they make it seem.

Pros

-It's a Billion Dollar Start Up - fast pace, highly-intelligent people, makes strategic decisions fairly quickly for such a large company. -Culture is fantastic - you love coming to work because of the great people! -The solution space is fantastic - everything digital!

Cons

We're a consensus-driven culture, which can make the decision making process all-inclusive; but the positive is that once a decision is made, it is fully supported.
