Pros

Great co-workers. Work-life balance is better than most other companies. Adobe's doing exciting things--if we succeed, we'll have a huge, positive impact on how others do their work.

Cons

Adobe still isn't a bad place to work, but from the employee perspective, it definitely seems to be on the decline. With layoffs, cost-cutting measures by removing time off and benefits, morale on most teams is really low. Management seems more worried about appeasing Wall Street than running a successful, impactful business where employees are happy and excited.

Pros

It offers a generous personal space with individual offices, co-workers are great; people you'd like to hang out with after work. The company has market recognition primarily via Acrobat and Flash.

Cons

The bonus freeze was a real shoddy deal. Moreover layoffs and no long term growth plans have left a bad taste in mouth. No new innovative idea has come out of company after Acrobat.
