Pros

Adobe brand name in your resume and some nice chaps to work with. Salary and benefits are good.

Kontras

Adobe Consulting or GDC jobs are mainly support roles with most of your day to day work involving troubleshooting adobe marketing cloud solutions so basically no strategic work for Business Consultants and no real dev work for Technical Consultants. If you are happy doing support roles and troubleshooting/implementing tools you might give it a shot. The other catch in the consulting roles are utilization goals which basically means you have to achieve around 420 hours of consulting every quarter no matter what the circumstances are which is linked to your variable pay. The management lives by the gospel of utilization goals and time sheets putting unnecessary pressure on employees. There were times when there were more pressure from the management to hit the utilization numbers rather than the client. The state of GDC is a well-known fact in Adobe with very high attrition rate and employee dissatisfaction. The higher management seems to have no vision or clue on how to fix this. Do not go by the brand name of Adobe do research about the role especially if it is in consulting or GDC before jumping into it as I have seen so many genuinely talented folks stuck here. I left within few months and trust me I had never felt so much better.

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

Kontras

- 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.

Pros

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

Kontras

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