Pros: Good work-life balance, fair compensation, great products. People are superb.

Cons: Some years, it can be challenging to progress with minor politics involved.

Pros: If this is one of your early companies, you get to learn to do things independently. You can have fun at work, but that depends on the team too.

Cons: Decreasing quality of people. As the number of people is increasing, more and more levels are being created in the hierarchy. Transparency is lost. Increasing micromanagement and decrease in actual managerial skills. The workplace is now ridden with dirty politics. The newly created leads are confused. They are still individual contributors but they behave as managers (micro-managers). As a result, there is a lack of trust on both ends. And then there is unjustifiable favoritism. And now Adobe has even lost its position as a high paymaster. It is no more a dream company!

Pros: .WLB is great. Free food.

Cons: .Career Opportunities. Compensation could be better.
