Pros

I think Adobe has well known products and services. Employee software discount is good. Work and life balance is also good.

Cons

I think it is difficult to move position in Adobe. I also think innovation is encouraged but not so much supported.

Pros

One of the best reasons to work at Adobe is might get to work with some top caliber engineers. People here usually like their job and are proud to work at Adobe.

Cons

Some negatives about working here are that as a young engineer there is limited upward mobility. Most people that work here, stay here. This leads to a log jam at the top. Also there are some people that have found a way to stick around, even though they aren't that talented.

Pros

Adobe is full of very smart, friendly, talented people. You get to work on some really interesting products. There's a good work/life balance. It's a blue-chip company that probably isn't at much risk of failing. You may get a fairly competitive offer when you are first hired.

Cons

In my first 9 years, during boom times, I had no promotions and no raises beyond cost of living (and not always even that). I'm good at what I do, but I didn't take career management seriously enough during those 9 years. No one so much as mentioned the word "career" to me until this year. I finally managed a promotion and a small raise; it was like pulling teeth. Adobe is crowded with talented people, and focuses pretty heavily on cost control, and unless you're lucky, it's hard to find ways to move up.
