Pros

I love that this company gives me everything I need to be successful without the micromanagement. I have top notch equipment and can easily contact the people who developed each product when I have questions.

Cons

The only downside to the company is that we are trying to venture in to some new areas focused on services instead of product. Everyone in the company will tell you that Adobe is a product company, but the actions of the some executives don't align with words. I get the feeling of rogue actions and kingdom building at the senior leadership level.

Pros

Good, growing company. There's a lot of room for growth still. Adobe is strongly poised to benefit from the wave of next-generation Web applications and services. One of the biggest advantages that Adobe has is its strong track-record of tapping trends and making them work to its own benefit. I would see the company as a front-runner as the world gears up to make the shift from shrink-wrapped applications to Web 2.0, Web 3.0 and so forth. The Macromedia acquisition has given Adobe a strong headstart and the management is competent enough to carry the momentum forth.

Cons

Long hours and challenging timelines.

Pros

Good management, participatory culture (as opposed to boss-is-always-right-in-other-firms).

Cons

There is practically no in-house training, no feedback on how someone is doing, no ranking disclosure.
