Pros

We work on amazing products. My friends love sharing the employee discount. Almost everyone I meet instantly recognizes what it is I work on. The people we work with are intelligent, which makes a big difference when you have to work with them day in and out. It is a big, recognizable software company that you can be proud to be a part of, while still smaller than the other big software players.

Cons

They only have a few offices, so relocating and keeping your job would be difficult. Everyone I know uses my as their personal sound board for every complaint about Photoshop, Flash, Acrobat, Updater, etc.

Pros

- Awesome culture. I love going to work every day. People are really nice - exciting to be in the industry where a lot of innovation is happening - good work life balance - flexible RTO - two one-week shutdowns per year, unlimited PTO, global wellness days, great benefits

Cons

- Leadership lost its way. Missed huge opportunities in markets served by Canva and GenAI. Took the wrong bet on commercially safe models, missing out on huge opportunities that were captured by competing GenAI models. No clear strategy or vision from management about how to get back in track. Our products are losing market share every day and management seems to be lime deer in headlights, unsure what to do - Watching stock price deflating nearly every day is disheartening - Decision making is very slow. Takes ages to get things approved. - C-suite is mostly over 50 and often seem out of touch with latest AI and tech trends. Uphill battle sometimes to get them to see urgent opportunities that need to be acted on immediately - Adobe failed to organically develop major products in the last 20 years. Major recent ones; Firefly and Express; have not been successful.
