AEM: Always Entailing Madness

Anonymous employee

Pros

Stellar name and benefits. The ADBE name opens doors. Sabbatical (unheard of in tech). Liberal Vacation policy

Cons

If you have an offer from Adobe stay away if you have to work with Adobe AEM. It is the final straw that will push me out of the company. Management out of touch with whats happening in the field. Layoffs almost every year.

Pros

Great brand and products, cool perks, on site gym, great insurance plan, great employee stock plan, wellness plan, cool building, great time off policy, shut downs for Christmas and 4th of July. Lots of smart and creative people.

Cons

Work-life balance is rough and stressful much of the time. despite the great time off policy, you are so busy that you feel you can't take advantage of it. very complicated contract work flow system, constantly resolving invoicing issues for customers. Compensation is not adequate for the work load. Managers feel they don't have to pay more because of the large job seeker pool which also means Managers have no incentive to keep experienced employees around. Very difficult to move up, too competitive. In many cases, hiring managers are looking for MBA candidates and will look outside the company even if someone internally could be trained to do the work. Company is very slow to change and upgrade systems and processes.
