Pros

Excellent culture with friendly, social people and a general attitude that personal life should be balanced with work life.

Cons

Little accountability, a lot of confusionb etween the various groups in IT, many parallel efforts going on at once. A lot of meetings in which not too much seems to get done. HR is not really involved in a lot of things the way they should be, especially revolving around new hire education and assisting individuals with career advancement at Adobe. There are very few events which are held involving the company as the whole, but this may be difficult for organizaitons of this size.

Pros

- Awesome culture. I love going to work every day. People are really nice - exciting to be in the industry where a lot of innovation is happening - good work life balance - flexible RTO - two one-week shutdowns per year, unlimited PTO, global wellness days, great benefits

Cons

- Leadership lost its way. Missed huge opportunities in markets served by Canva and GenAI. Took the wrong bet on commercially safe models, missing out on huge opportunities that were captured by competing GenAI models. No clear strategy or vision from management about how to get back in track. Our products are losing market share every day and management seems to be lime deer in headlights, unsure what to do - Watching stock price deflating nearly every day is disheartening - Decision making is very slow. Takes ages to get things approved. - C-suite is mostly over 50 and often seem out of touch with latest AI and tech trends. Uphill battle sometimes to get them to see urgent opportunities that need to be acted on immediately - Adobe failed to organically develop major products in the last 20 years. Major recent ones; Firefly and Express; have not been successful.
