Pros

The benefits and perks are amazing. I was worried about being at a big company, but I have found I have more freedom than previous small companies I have worked for.

The employees are smart – really smart – and everyone is a hard worker as far as I've seen. I'm sure there's a slacker in every group, but comparatively, there are fewer B and C team players at Adobe than at any other place I've worked at.

Although I'm sure it depends on the team and managers, my experience with Adobe has been nothing short of fantastic.

Cons

Could do more discounted or free food in the cafeteria, since that is, in the overall numbers, a very small thing that would go a long way with the employees and their families.

Advice to Management

Two things:

  1. More transparency in career track and exposing the criteria used for raises and promotions. I asked and received the information, but it seems that info should have been more available to me as a new hire as an incentive to keep me there.

  2. I feel like we need at least one person or team that leads technically across the entire digital marketing division to help unify vision and progress. I'm definitely not saying that they should dictate technologies or paradigms, but they could definitely help bring projects or ideas that have been productive/helpful in one department to another.
