Pros

Continually striving to set the market, not follow. Respectful of the amount of time employees focus on their jobs by providing vacation days flexibility, personal and professional growth. Great group of colleagues and tremendous products continually evolving.

Cons

Overall positive company but it can be easy to get lost in the shuffle with the other 10,000+ employees.

Pros

Great work life balance and I enjoy working with everyone I've had a chance to work with. All kinds of benefits - great medical, good salary, work from home, sabbatical, fitness reimbursement, 3-6 months mat leave, 2 weeks of shutdown plus lots of vacation days, adoption bennies, and more. Working hard is not difficult when you get compensated appropriately.

Cons

Layoffs every year are a big bummer and not knowing if your product will be around another year or what new direction the company is going to take is nerve racking and counterproductive. Supposedly the yearly layoffs are supposed to stop (they didn't do it this year so let's hope it stays that way). Finding your way around Adobe and figuring out how to get things done around all the red tape and slow movement is half the battle. The Omniture acquisition was a downer culturally for both sides - still not fixed.

Cons

* it's a corporation, but oh well * Linux is not supported on dev machines (however you can use it, if you're brave enough)
