Pluspunten

Benefits & Stocks! Location - for emeryville office.

Minpunten

The Adobe Emeryville offfice - Its actually not a true Adobe office. Its a tubemogul company which is basically a adtech company acquired by Adobe later. The Ad cloud of Adobe is not doing well and hence there's not much focus on quality or any new exciting initiatives & the growth rate is literally slowing down. Better beware of this company & do not get fooled by the name Adobe. I got 3 offers(Adobe, another big fortune 500 tech and a startup) & I chose this offer mainly fooled by the brand Adobe, location + benefits & stocks. But, after couple of months joining I really repented a lot for making the decision as the work or the growth of adtech portfolio of Adobe is literally slowing down and even their technology stack is not so exciting to work or learn. Their office space sucks and its a damn old building in emeryville and not like a corporate atmosphere. If you have multiple offers, better stay away from this Adobe Emeryville office(Adobe Ad cloud), atleast for the sake of your good. I'm currently out of them and my experience with them was I just wasted my 1 year of my career with them without learning anything new or exciting to my interest.

Pluspunten

- 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

Minpunten

- 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.

Pluspunten

Great opportunity to learn from incredibly smart people, many opportunities to continue education, great for independent workers, not so for entry

Minpunten

Upper management forgets that first line managers need training. You need a thick skin to survive them
