      If you are an engineer and you want to become better this is one of th best companies in Romania

      Pros

      There are many great and good engineers in Adobe Romania. This means that the bar regarding the expected quality and efficiency is quite high. Most engineering managers level 1 are quite OK in terms of supporting the engineers and managing the team dynamics. It is not that easy to promote in some directions eg. from individual contributor (software engineer) to engineer manager. You can move internally once you have a good reputation - it is not that hard to change projects. The benefits are probably the best you can get in Romania.

      Cons

      The office doesn't really have product ownership which means that it is outsourcing type of work more or less. Decisions made in USA, teams in Romania execute. There are lots of different teams and the pace is quite different. But overall it is hard to keep a work-life balance. Especially if you have to work directly with US, you'll have lots of evening calls/meetings. Senior management lacks leadership, creating and explaining the strategy to individual contributors.

      Everything is great, with exception of November, and a few bad apples

      Pros

      --Cool products --Cool customers --Upbeat environment - high morale, positive energy --People are (mostly) very nice, collegial, interesting, fun - and capable. Genuine experts in their respective areas. --Management is pivoting the company quickly, and successfully --Great office space --Pay and benefits are very good --There are no loafers at Adobe - everyone works hard. Employee engagement in their jobs and the company is very high

      Cons

      --November = layoff season. Creates a lot of stress --Analysis paralysis around (some) decision making. Burden of analytical proof for any decision is almost impossibly high. Bring data or stay home; expect to have every number picked at with a fine tooth comb. Can lead to painfully long meetings and long hours. --In a few areas - not many - some very aggressive people. Some level of being able to fall back on tenure as a justification for treating others poorly.
