Hello Adobe or Ex-Adobe Folks, I feel adobe is not what it was one year before. At least It is true for DX Org where lot of Re-Org has happened , Managements are busy in showing their loyalty to US Folks by working day and night and are expecting every one of us to do so. The Work Life Balance has been Gone Forever. The way DX is performing I do not see we are going to get good budget from US and this will impact our appraisals (I know some people who like to lick their boss by working day and night would get maximum out of this minimum budget). On Contrary Though, I see Adobe has awesome Values, the way they treat their employees , the way they have given Friday Off (3rd Friday to be precise) etc etc. (Here "they" means Gloria and team ). Also from the Stock point of view (RSU and ESPP), I see their is good profit there and most of the people are here and have been here because of that , Apart for reasons like being close to family(For Noida Campus). Regarding Work Culture, as I mentioned ,Its pathetic in my Org . And also I am not seeing any learning for myself. I do not want to work for 14 hours every day as how it is being expected these days. I am not being Paid that much so I am not able to work as well that much, Its as simple as that. So Its all Negative from this point of view. I am sure there will be many people like me , who are not able to decide whether to hold back or start switching (and probably loose the stock factor) . So I need to know - What should we do ? Should be Switch Internal to Adobe ?Should be keep working with our pace and gets bombed by Shitty Managers ? Or GoodBye Adobe? What all companies One should Target ? Please Don`t Include only MS, Google and Amazon In the answers because One, These names are obvious , Second Its difficult to get into these (Atleast for me ) . How are these companies compare to Adobe, I do not see Adobe People going there, are these on lower step of ladder ? : Atlassian , Walmart, Flipkart , VMWare , OCI, PhonePe, Goldman Also, I would like to know -If I change now to get some breathe to an equivalent company or a startup , Would I be able to Re-Join Adobe Back ? I see people who are joining at 10 YOE getting awesome packages in Adobe . Should I take this BET ? I am sure your answers and suggestions would help not only me but many others who are in same boat as me. YOE - 6 CTC - 22L (Base) + 23L (Stock) #offer #adobe #tech
Dx is rough right now. Tough calls all the way around but shop the market and see if you can find something better in culture and $$.
I have a lot of doubts on the top DX leaders. I don’t think the situation will get better anytime soon, neither US not India.
May I know what is “DX”?

Hi OP, do you have any insight into doc cloud org? (Not sure what the abbreviation is)
OP thinks very high of Adobe. I left DX an year back and it was the best decision. DX is not IC friendly anymore. There is nothing to innovate specifically in India offices. The work is leftover from US teams. Amazon is shit, don’t aim for it. Trust me, no one in industry wants to hire Amazon’s mid-managers for the culture they bring. Same goes with majority of DX managers, they are rusty-skilled, lazy people managers. If I were you I would stop being lazy and compare teams/businesses rather companies. Your career will be driven by you and your association & abilities to continue with quality work and smarter people. Brand name doesn’t take you very far. I don’t want you to scare you but I have seen career of few people closely in Adobe DX. Some 10% of my circle went to MS/LinkedIn or better places but nearly 20% couldn’t get an equally decent job after they left. Not even to the lower ladder companies, some of the btw can pay much much better than DX. Adobe expanded heavily in 2016-17 onwards. It is just a matter of another year when you will see people on rsu cliff. You will see major drain of talent soon.
I have a few different viewpoints. DX is bad for management folks and also bad in the US offices too.
How is Adobe captivate team (Digital learning team)? Does it come under Dx org?
