Pros

Awesome people, great benefits, good work life balance, totally fair. Adobe truly does value their employees. They bend over backwards to make sure their employees are happy and productive. I really love working here, it was my dream to get on at Adobe, and when I finally did after a year and a half of trying to get hired, I was NOT disappointed, in fact, things only got better! Personal growth and moving up is a huge focus here. I was surprised how much they encourage us to grow and strive to be able to move up in management or other positions. The on-boarding training is very effective, and the stock options are unbelievably generous. Not to mention the Lehi Facility is phenomenal. All around, I just love working at Adobe. Even though every day I don't love the tasks I'm doing, I can still honestly say I love my job, just because I feel valued, and honored to work here.

Cons

Long Interview process for some positions. It is a HUGE company, so there are some bureaucratic things you need to deal with, along with long wait times for certain things to get done, but overall, it's not so bad for a company that's so big. I have noticed that certain budget cuts have lead to things not being quite as epic as they have in the past, but, who can really blame them for this anyway?

Pros

Do nothing, blame others, rise upwards! Really, just "make it all look good" and you will be successful! Especially: be extra nice, overtly (okay to stab backs behind doors: everyone does that).

Cons

Can't sleep at night. Any ideas you have -- ESPECIALLY innovation (threatening!) -- will come to nothing. Management will see to that -- as they are measured on keeping the milk flowing from the cash cow.
