      Pros

      Great people, Technology and working environment

      Cons

      Everyone is working scared. November comes and we layoff hundred of US workers and hire them in India, It has happed 4 out of 5 years. Employees do not trust management. Adobe has dropped the goal of being innovative and now follows other leaders. They want to be part of everything and lack focus. Management has trully lost it over last year with bad decisions and communication. Word is that they are just trucking along to vest more options and then re-org to buy more time. I think they should just make a clear cut and close all offices in US and move it to India and China - get it over with.

      Senior leadership not keeping pace with change in the industry

      Pros

      There are a lot of very smart, talented, and nice people at Adobe. The culture (in the SF office at least) is very laid back and creative. The digital marketing side of the business is growing and has a lot of promise.

      Cons

      The company is very risk averse and generally tends to be reactive (often years later) to industry trends rather than proactive. Additionally, management no longer focuses on doing what is best for the customer, and instead looks at what's best for Adobe (short-term thinking, in my opinion). There are many brilliant people, but complacency and resistance to change are a big problem. Additionally, in company meetings the CEO talks to employees as though they're the press, doling out bland corporate-speak rather than being forthcoming or genuine. An inspiring leader, he is not.
