The high-level management (director and above) in Inside Sales seems to care solely on their image, rather than their employees. Inside Sales org recently had changes that resulted in 70-150% increase in quota, unrealistic expectations on execution, and a downhill slope in morale.

The culture is the worst I have seen in my professional career. The company is mostly run by white males who give lip service to diversity but have zero interest in it. There is a huge amount of narcissism and a bias towards people who talk nonstop about how great the company is and brown nose. It's like the worst frat you've ever seen. Most salespeople have never used the products they are selling. They have their sales scripts but that's it. You are expected to attend meetings and engage in typical workaholic behaviors if you want to go anywhere or save your job. They literally openly threaten firing during conferences and meetings if you do not praticipate to their liking. I have spoken to a number of people who have missed family events years in a row or missed milestones like their child walking for the first time because they are expected to attend grueling meetings regardless. It is very clear that these people must give total control of their homelife to their spouse or partner, otherwise their home would be in shambles. Expect poor to no training or mentorship. When you struggle, you will be blamed. You'll be pointed to the web with countless trainings that will teach you zero valuable skills. Your mentor will end up being someone who is way too busy trying to be a superstar suck up to actually mentor you. When you fail you'll be labeled as "just not adobe material." The processes are a bureaucratic nightmare that would make George Orwell say "really? That seems over the top." Expect that any process will require you to call or interact with offshore resources in India who struggle to communicate and have zero understanding of the process beyond their link in the chain. It is without question the least empathic work environment I have ever seen. God forbid you bring up anything unpleasant like a death in the family or anything similar as just small talk. The employee will gloss over it and talk about how "excited" they are about the "opportunities" Adobe has in the market. That is unless they want to sell you something and then they will act like they care until the deal is done.
