Pros

Adobe has great benefits - the insurance is the best I've ever had, there's a sabbatical every 5 years, etc.

Cons

If you're a software engineer, you don't want to work in consulting. Engineering ability is looked down upon. Good engineers are often not promoted, and poor engineers are often promoted as long as they talk to the right people. Your time is strictly tracked, down to 15-minute increments. You will be actively discouraged from going to conferences if it means taking time off work. You can forget about ever having your conference ticket paid for unless you're lucky enough to be working for a large client project. Product engineering will also look down on you coming from consulting. So movement is very difficult, even if it's to a position that you're extremely qualified for.

Pros

I enjoy the flexibility of WFH and there is encouragement across the "Clouds" to do well. If one does well, we all do well. The stock option is amazing, well worth investing. One of the best perks of this company.

Cons

In a technical sales position, there are not many roles to move in to. Even if you want to move in to people management, there isn't much. Also, get the highest salary you can coming in because like everywhere, you'll not get a decent raise again.

Pros

People are smart and interesting, products are great, perks are excellent, especially the two company "shutdowns" each year. Facilities are attractive and colorful.

Cons

Treats women unfairly, has a lot of deadwood, doesn't have a clear strategy, ignores its own research in favor of management whims.
