Pros

Excellent teamwork; many advancement opportunities

Cons

Work life balance lacking.

Enjoyable place to work, happy to see Mondays

Solutions Architect (Current Employee) - London - July 29, 2022

Interesting work and great colleagues - Adobe cares about it's people. Would recommend Adobe as a place to work. Always learning due to fast product development. However, progression to leadership roles is difficult as there are few opportunities.

Pros

Interesting products, always more to learn, healthy workplace culture, flexibility, largest client's in region

Cons

Lack of progression opportunities

Excellent culture for a large company

Sr Software Engineering Manager, Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento) (Current Employee) - Austin, TX - July 24, 2022

For a large company, Adobe has an excellent culture for its employees. It strives for diversity and inclusion but can be slow moving at times (but Adobe is very big).There is a lot of variation depending on what team/business unit you are in. Some places have better engineering practices and career growth than others. Depending on your level, it can be hard to find a path for advancement.

Pros

Overall culture, salary

Cons

Variability among teams, advancement

Hardly any con. Good people, small teams, lots of growth opportunity, good perks.

Software Engineer Intern (Former Employee) - Remote - July 15, 2022

I was a SWE intern and the expectations were reasonable and even very busy people made time for me. Everyone always encouraged me and celebrated my successes. Only thing would be a lack of diversity in some of the engineering teams (mine included)

Sales Managers can be bullies

Account Executive (Former Employee) - San Francisco, CA - July 9, 2022

It's all about the accounts you get. Some of the sales managers can be bullies and have their favorites. Very little support unless you have a super large deal.

Best place to work

Professional Sales Executive (Current Employee) - Remote - May 30, 2022

I have been here for 4 years and it has been by far, the best experience that I have ever had at a company. The culture is so inclusive, and the compensation and benefits are the best I have ever experienced.

Pros

Culture, time off, flexibility of workspace, top leadership, and compensation

Cons

Stress and bias for action can be a bit overwhelming, but it keeps it interesting.

I just joined but I felt that Adobe gives value to every individual

Data Architect (Current Employee) - Remote - April 18, 2022

I just joined but I felt that Adobe gives value to every individual. My manager is very focused and appreciative. It has tons of material for self-learning and is partnered with many external learning platforms. Benefits are good but the only cons I would say is managing multiple small projects at the same time when the expectation is not properly defined. It sometimes causes anxiety while filling timesheet

Una gran empresa para trabajar, trabajo en equipo, colaboración, constante esfuerzo para hacer equipo.

Ventas (Current Employee) - Regional - LATAM - April 1, 2022

Una excelente empresa, innovadora, siempre en dinámica de cambio, nuevos productos y capacidades que es muy difícil dar seguimiento. Liderazgo de empuje pero a veces muy estresante. Aunque la empresa cuida el balance de vida las exigencias diarias terminan en jornadas extensas de 10 horas diarias por lo menos. Acercamientos regulares para hacerte sentir parte del equipo.

Great place to work, best job I've ever had

Contract Test Automation Developer, Developer, Tester, Tech Support (Former Employee) - Seattle, WA - March 3, 2022

There's a time when you realize that going to work is a joy and you've lost track of the time again building something that you can be pretty proud. As a bonus you've helped plenty of friends and customers and other folks do something creative and meaningful. I got the chance to enable books to be published, art to be appreciated, and deadlines to be met when people took advantage of my skills and knowledge that I freely gave because I could. All that and a bag of chips happened at Adobe.

Pros

Almost too many to list

Cons

Some California-related management stuff

great work/life balance

Program Manager, Subscription Services (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - February 27, 2022

The best thing for me was the work/life balance. But with that comes missed opportunities that only comes if you're willing to get outside your comfort zone.

Pros

great opportunities for advancement and learning if you're willing to learn outside your domain

Cons

you get to work on the same thing using different technologies as the team/product scales and evolve

Opportunity

Product Manager (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - February 15, 2022

The most important benefit of working at Adobe is that the company provides opportunities to play your role to the best of your ability, or invent a role that does allow you room to grow.

Pros

Unlimited opportunity for the hard worker

Cons

Too many MBA's!

Lack of balance/support during pandemic.

Support Engineer (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - January 17, 2022

Note- Hired and left during COVID WFHWork was well defined and paid. Company itself was great and fantastic benefits. Seemed to be a function/team specific issue and advancement couldn't come soon enough to wait it out.Customers can be very needy and you will end up needing to work beyond 9-6 most days. Management is generally supportive but I found many un-supportive teammates. Attempts to reach out for help were often met with dismissal or rude response from senior employees. Folks outside of the support org especially very rude to support engineers.

Great for Interns

Intern (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - October 19, 2021

Definitely a great internship experience due to everything you can learnand everyone you can meet. It was remote for me though so it lost a lot of aspects such as connecting with people organically, but overall a great place to learn.

It has nice cafeteria and ping pong table.

Sr. Network Engineer (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - August 11, 2021

1. The Review system is serious and the manager evaluates you at every work you do and the feedbacks from the customer.2. the office atmosphere is good but the stress level is quite high.3. Company encourages to learn new skill sets but for me I can only find limited time to learn new stuffs.
