Pros

Good management, participatory culture (as opposed to boss-is-always-right-in-other-firms).

Cons

There is practically no in-house training, no feedback on how someone is doing, no ranking disclosure.

Pros

Good products and nice people. Generally, colleagues are helpful and we have lots of intelligent people who work hard. Our desktop products are still market leading for a reason and we have some fantastic enterprise platforms that can do amazing things Communication is a ok rather than brilliant, but you do get a sense that you are doing a valued role and in general terms staff are looked after very well. We have plenty of technology at our disposal, pleasant offices with a wide range of break areas, decent coffee etc!! Compensation is good and things like quarterly bonuses are most welcome. Generally, left to get on with your job which is a blessing.

Cons

Bureacracy in getting things done is very long winded. Lack of decent marketing of enterprise products - clients simply do not know what we do in this space, very short term revenue targets, lack of resource in some areas, very west coast oriented, makes decision making in Europe very slow and difficult Pricing structures very complex and European pricing is viewed by most as rip-off, very difficult to justify. Lack of management understanding of Enterprise Level Selling and the length of time it takes to generate and close business makes doing business very difficult sometimes. Short termism is damaging the image of the company in some clients. Often seen as agressive to deal with.

Pros

From a sales persons perspective, working for Adobe is great because decision makers actually want to meet with you. Getting appointments with the right people is easy. There are plenty of very talented people within Adobe.

Cons

There is LOTS of red tape. As a sales person, it feels like you're constantly battling to get stuff done for customers, especially when it comes to putting creative deals together. In the UK they are very family unfriendly, the sales team is male dominated so they have little time for working mums. Some members of the sales team are very arrogant.
