Pros

Stock options, Healthcare benefits and fancy offices

Cons

The TAM Org within APAC is an absolute toxic environment to work in. The offering itself is so vague that no one knows what's being offered or what is supposed to be delivered. Management keeps rebranding the offering every 12-18 months to show "Innovation " and keep themselves in the role. Clients don't know what they get for the money they're spending and if employees make any noise about it internally then they're mentally tortured and shown the door for exposing the management. With the multiple acquisitions every year, the entire support org is completely broken and integration is hopeless. Clients feel the pain and scream at the folks on the ground and it makes no difference to the Senior management sitting in their ivory towers. The wider office also screams of white privilege. So unless you are white, don't expect a promotion or any appreciation for your hard work. You're expected to keep your head down and do the dirty work while the management turn up for receiving accolades. Employee branding do a brilliant job at marketing the company when it's totally they opposite in certain pockets of the company. Culture has gone down the drain quite rapidly and it's best to avoid joining them.

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

Cons

- 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.
