Pluspunten

- Benefits are good, especially 6 months of maternity leave

Minpunten

- Too much of micro management, Manager monitors you to the level of how many PR's you submitted, how many comments you received on each PR, how many PR's did you review, how many comments did you add to each PR - I worked in the creative cloud team and the work expectations are too much - They talk about gender equal etc but I don't see it practically, If you are a working mother or female in general, what you speak weights less - They do not take 360degree feedback during performance reviews, manager just takes the review from one senior engineer whom he believes and your performance is measured based on your relationship with that sr engineer. - Manager do not say it, but they expect ppl to finish ur sprint work (how much ever time it takes, they only need end result)as well as spend some extra time and contribute to projects outside what you do and also do regular brown bag sessions and presentations, in short work for more than 50hrs per week and thats what they consider to promote you. - If the manager does not like anything in you, they put on PIP(performance improvement plan), and u should agree to whatever they say, and if they decide to fire you, whatever you try to improve they don't even consider it. - So, if they put you on PIP, better quit the company and move to something else - Overall, bad experience in my entire 15 years of career.

Pluspunten

**Supportive, collaborative culture** — Teams are generally kind, respectful, and willing to help. Cross‑functional partners treat contractors well, and communication is clear and professional. **Strong work‑life balance** — Workloads are manageable, expectations are reasonable, and leadership respects personal time. **Clear processes and documentation** — Adobe invests in structure, which makes it easier to ramp up and deliver consistently.

Minpunten

**Contractor limitations** — Contractors often don’t have access to the same tools, systems, or internal mobility opportunities as full‑time employees. **Uncertain path to full‑time roles** — Even when you perform well, conversion opportunities depend heavily on headcount and budget, not merit. **Benefits gap** — Contractors miss out on Adobe’s strong benefits package, which can make long‑term stability challenging. **Slower decision cycles** — As with many large companies, approvals and cross‑team alignment can take time. *Role boundaries can be rigid** — Because of the structured environment, there’s less room for contractors to expand scope or take on stretch projects.
