Adobe reviews

Hard to get promoted/not common. Minimal pay raises. Easy to get pigeon holed or stagnate in one job. Recently, a wave of anxiety about keeping up in the AI market has led to lots of panicked hiring, firing, and questionable/toxic behavior on the marketing side (top-down).

Adobe would benefit from stronger leadership accountability and clearer performance structures. Many teams lack defined OKRs, making it hard to align on priorities or measure success. A more transparent, outcomes-based goal-setting and review process—tied to actual business impact—would help reduce favoritism and internal politics. It would also support fair, merit-based promotions and create a more equitable path for career advancement.
