Pros

Great people: smart, open minded, honest relations with the managers from Romania (and US), who are very close to the employees. The Adobe culture is very cool.

Cons

Some people in the campus want to have a bigger impact on those high profile products and services developed by Adobe.

Pros

Have been here for more than 10 years. Overall well balanced company. Work life balance is good is most teams

Cons

Bonuses used to be better before. They are okay now. Layoff every year for the past 3-4 years Too many re-org. Forget promotions due to re-orgs, as every year you might be moved to a different team, and no manager would promote you till you work for them for more than an year, and you cannot work for more than an year, since the team would get affected by a re-org. Its happened with me three years in a row. Some teams are super aggressive, so if you want a good work life balance, make sure you get into the right team.
