Pros

Adobe is a solid company with good benefits and programs. Overall is a very nice place with a good balance of work and life, and overall healthy working relationships. It has great products and interesting busiensses on which to work.

Cons

Like any sizable company can be slower moving than one would like, and somewhat bureacratic at times, with arcane processes and unclear approval lines.

Pros

• Being a part of product releases is an experience to have. • One gets a chance to develop and hone various skills technical or inter- personal skills. • Moving across teams is one advantage if one wants to gain expertise on multiple domains.

Cons

• Hiring white box engineers while not being able to provide them work of that nature most of the times, is a mistake and leads to high attrition. • At the same time the QEs who do not have exceptional whitebox skills are not given their due, despite a high workload which obviously needs to be completed for a release.

Pros

For the most part, they allow your creativity to run wild and cultivate a culture of innovation. I am consistently presented with new and exciting opportunities and the company is constantly changing with the times. Obviously simply having their name on a resume is huge, but I've found there are plenty of reasons for that to be the case.

Cons

It seems unless you work 60+ hours/week, it's hard to move up per se. Although there are a lot of opportunities, they don't necessarily come with more cash/benefits. The yearly review process doesn't exist anymore and is an "on going" process. That's great in general, getting constant constructive feedback. However, what's yet to be seen is how this will work with promotions/recognition
