Pros

Great compensation, smart people, awesome products. Adobe is known for its high quality products and it is a source of pride for all of us to be associated with "the best".

Cons

Bureaucracy and way too many processes. Adobe has too many people in the organization who do not contribute to the bottom line, and spend a lot of their working hours coming up with ways to slow down the rest of us. This is probably common at any company that is growing rapidly and trying to do so gracefully.

Pros

The quality of people and the culture. There is so much energy and teamwork within the company. The company also provides the best compensation and benefits. It is an honest and trustworthy environment. I am also very proud of the new green movement. My fellow employers have truly become my friends, and the company has become my family. Adobe is also a great company that has an understanding of the market and where it's headed. They have a great vision for the future and each employee has a purpose and a sense of accomplishment. I would recommend working for Adobe for anyone looking for a challenge and knows how to work hard/play hard.

Cons

The downsides of adobe are that the salary can be very competitive. It is unfortunate that you only get feedback about once a year and it is all positive. This is good, but I would prefer a little constructive criticism here and there. Some times it is just a too laid back atmosphere. It is also very hard to move into a new and higher position. In addition, everything moves very slowly at Adobe. If you are looking for a fast paced environment, this is not the place to be. It is also a very large company, so that can have its ups and downs.
