      Adobe life

      Senior program manager

      CEO approval

      Pros

      The people at Adobe are an incredibly smart and creative bunch. Overall benefits package is excellent, including sabbaticals every five years. Good ongoing learning and development opportunities. It's common to move around to different groups so there's opportunities to try new things.

      Cons

      There's a lot of opportunities to make lateral moves, but it's difficult to get beyond first line manager status. Some execs can be very hands on with projects at a micro level (e.g. feature and UI decisions). Re-orgs and small layoffs happen frequently.

      A company that tries to be cognizant of their employees lives

      Senior computer scientist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Laid back atmosphere that promotes a fantastic work/life balance. - Phenomenal benefits--from the health plans, to flexible vacation policy, and set company breaks. - Great coworkers. - There is a push to redefine what Adobe is from the inside out with varying success. - you feel like your contribution matters. Leaner teams mean you have more impact on the company (and project) bottom line.

      Cons

      - Vision is sometimes lacking from above (or at least not clearly communicated to staff). - Sometimes difficult to work on what you want (or were hired for) - Inertia in older codebases (and defined process around the application) can be difficult to overcome. - There is a drive to adhere to Scrum even when it sometimes doesn't fit the project goals.
