Company treats employees very well, with a great salary, bonuses, stock, benefits, and perks.

Leading-edge technology and challenges create a very fast-paced environment where you are challenged to learn and apply new ideas.

Senior management is very good. Shantanu is an awesome leader and visionary.

Mid-level management is weak. They are mostly engineering staff who have been promoted, so they know products and technology, but don't know how to manage people. As a result, some people feel highly valued, and others do not.

Management decisions are very slow. Often employees have the opportunity to make decisions, but when disagreements occur, management can take months to make a decision.

Treat your people like upper management promises – like your most important asset. Lots of experience and expertise is wasted because inexperienced managers don't know how to lead or build employees.
