Adobe Reviews

Pros
The work is good and challenging and one is at the forefront of technological changes. For a technical writer in India, Adobe is one of the employers that offers challenging, fulfilling work.
Cons
Two layoffs in a single year (8% + 9%) within a single year can only be justified for a PROFITABLE company by an incompetent and insensitive management. The focus here is on protecting the margins much more than protecting employees. Adobe has disappointed employees big time in this downturn.
Advice to Senior Management
Focus on retaining employees; margins will follow. If you really have to cut workforce, cut once and cut deep! Do not resort to repeated layoffs. They demotivate employees no end!
