Adobe Leadership Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

They seem focused on employee happiness.

Review from Admin Dept

I'm still new, so I don't have a well-formed opinion yet. I do appreciate the all-hands since there had been several reorgs in marketing (B4 I joined) - that was a good way to understand what's new/changing, seeing demos.

Review from Marketing Dept

Transparent communications from top down.

Review from IT Dept

I'm not sure which "leadership" team this question refers to

Review from Customer Success Dept

Passion to achieve the best, empathy and compassion making it a human organization.

Review from HR Dept

Very encouraging during my work!

Review from Engineering Dept

The leadership team does a good job at communication.

Review from Engineering Dept

I have only been here just over a month, but one of the reasons I chose to join Adobe was because of the strength of the leadership team.

Review from Sales Dept

they listen to feedback and action

Review from Sales Dept

Intentional thoughtful decision making that has long term vision to stand the test of time.

Review from HR Dept

I like that we are a mission driven organization that also recognizes how important the employees are.

Review from Sales Dept

I have had nearly zero contact with the Adobe leadership team so this is hard to have.

Review from Engineering Dept

The leadership team does a great job with reflecting on how far Adobe has come and giving credit where it's due. They celebrate the wins and praise employee's hard work. They also do a great job with painting an inspiring picture of the future and what our company wide goals are!

Review from Sales Dept

Everyone is very approachable. It's great to feel that you can speak openly with anyone.

Review from Design Dept

Thinking about differentiated offerings with customer centricity.

Review from Design Dept

The members of the leadership team that I have met have been very engaging and personable. They asked how my onboarding has been going and provided answers to questions I have asked.

Review from IT Dept

Everyone is no nice and truly interested in helping.

Review from Sales Dept

Their integrity and finding the correct balance between leveraging AI and protecting our customers who are primarily creators and marketers.

Review from Sales Dept

They are focused and intentional. They provide stability without too many team reorganizations unless it's really necessary which allows the team to keep burning through the never-ending backlog of things to develop.

Review from Product Dept

They communicate and tell the why, not just the what of a decision.

Review from Customer Success Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

removing barriers to execution, asking for help, giving opportunity to all to jump in on high visibility projects

Review from HR Dept

Treat employees like humans and not just a number

Review from Marketing Dept

Evaluate the currently existing talent within Adobe and compensate accordingly. We're underpaid in comparison with competitors.

Review from HR Dept

General transparency and clearer goal and priority setting

Review from Marketing Dept

diversity and inclusion training people managers retention

Review from Marketing Dept

More promotions for women and POC. The leveling at Adobe is very far off from the rest of the tech world. It's nearly impossible to get to director, sr. director, etc. and the criteria isn't clear. Several employees have reached that criteria and been denied with no clear explanation.

Review from Marketing Dept

Being fair to all employees in the organization, not just their favorites. When it comes to task assignments or promotions, the favorites get the best again and again, and the worst tasks get assigned to people from disadvantaged groups.

Review from Engineering Dept

Gone way downhill in the last year. Everybody is pretty miserable.

Review from Marketing Dept

Spreading the vision of the company within the organization

Review from Product Dept

Speak up to other leaders and defend the team you manage. E.g. when product, design and sales team push for unreasonable product/deadline, engineering leaders should hold ground, listen to the team, push for compromise, don't try to impress while sacrificing the team for your own benefits.

Review from Engineering Dept

The executive team needs to better understand and lead the B2B business.

Review from Marketing Dept

Priorities change every single week. It's impossible to finish anything before getting pulled off onto something else. Then Execs have the nerve to say, "We aren't finishing strong."

Review from Product Dept

have a better understanding about their subordinates every day routine work

Review from Customer Support Dept

Respect is the most important

Review from Design Dept

Really difficult to do our jobs when we don't at all feel supported by the executive team.

Review from Finance Dept

Leadership needs to better understand the work that their subordinates perform and properly appreciate its complexity. Leadership also needs to trust more.

Review from Product Dept

Gain at least some level of competence.

Review from Engineering Dept

Compensating those who have sacrificed more than them to build this business

Review from Design Dept

They don't understand the details of their business very well preferring to focus on things at a very high level

Review from Finance Dept

Giving more autonomy to their direct reports
