Pros

-Very strong culture -Pretty easy to hit quota -Good leadership

Cons

Career advancement is impossible. Around 180 BDRs , all vying for a max of 15 positions to advance every year. BDR leadership is willing to help you prepare, but actual spots are incredibly rare and AE/AM leadership is unwilling to consider internal candidates first. Additional layoffs of other AE/AM teams has made it harder to get these roles, as laid off employees take them, Adobe is a great place to work, but a terrible place to start your career.

Pros

Work with a great team of individuals FTE's and Contracters. They have great benefits and unlimited PTO

It's a scary time with AI and tech layoffs. Not much room for growth being remote.

Pros

Pay, Benefits, etc. All the things that they do to keep people around.

Cons

Very siloed and difficult to get help or clarity on anything. Important emails go unanswered, crucial stakeholders required for meetings are frequently double booked, processes take weeks instead of days, and every time I try to get something done I encounter multiple unnecessary blockers, usually due to a breakdown of communication across teams. Enormous, bloated company, leaders don't want to make decisions so they just kick the can to another team. Too many different sites across timezones slows everything down. The back to office policy is ridiculous, unnecessary, and unevenly applied and we get no guidance during major storms or global events. And despite being a software company, our 3P software is dated and inefficient.
