Adobe

What is Adobe for All? 

At Adobe, we believe that everyone deserves respect and equal treatment regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, cultural background, religious beliefs or anything else that makes us who we are.  We believe that when people feel respected and included they can be more creative, innovative, and successful. We call this Adobe For All.

Through our Adobe For All focus, we emphasize the importance of inclusion and empathy for all employee groups.  If progress is made towards one underrepresented group, we believe all groups benefit from this progress.

While we have more work to do to advance diversity and inclusion, we’re investing to move our company and industry forward.

Our Strategy

To drive change, our strategy focuses on four key areas:

Building the talent pipeline.

Since the future of Adobe and every other tech company depends on our ongoing ability to hire talented people with diverse perspectives, we need more women and members of underrepresented groups to pursue careers in technology. That’s why we’re building the pipeline of future technical talent by helping young people of all backgrounds learn and get excited about software coding and careers in tech. Through our founding membership in Reboot Representation Tech Coalition and partnerships with numerous nonprofit organizations and universities, we invest both money and employee volunteer time to help give underrepresented and underserved populations a pathway to careers in computing.  

Learn more about how we’re investing to grow the pipeline of women and underrepresented minorities in tech.

Attracting diverse candidates.

Diversity of thought and experience strengthens our teams and helps us create great products and services for our diverse customers around the world. In order to attract, hire, and develop candidates of all genders, ethnicities, and backgrounds, we work to ensure inclusivity and fairness in our sourcing, interview and hiring processes. We partner with a number of organizations and institutions to broaden our reach, and we develop training programs to help our recruiters and hiring managers source diverse candidates and mitigate potential bias. And our Adobe Digital Academy is helping nontraditional candidates transition to careers in tech.

Get the details on our efforts to increase the number of women and underrepresented minorities we hire.

Enhancing the Employee Experience.

It’s vitally important that every Adobe employee feels valued and included. To achieve this, we’re creating an inclusive workplace through community-building, training and internal awareness-building, family-friendly benefit policies, and parity commitments. To empower everyone to bring their whole selves to work, we’ve instituted fair-pay practices that have allowed us to achieve global pay parity as of October 2018. We are extending our parity commitments with opportunity parity – examining fairness in promotions and horizontal movement across demographic groups. We’re putting Adobe For All into action with employee community-building events and tools to build a more inclusive environment.  We conduct regular employee surveys to understand our employees’ experience and help us foster diversity and inclusion. And we support employee networks and interest groups to create community and provide support.

Driving diversity across our industry.

A single company can’t foster diversity and inclusion in a silo — it takes a cross-industry effort. We’re joining forces with our customers, partners, vendors, and peers to drive broad progress. We support their efforts by working with organizations dedicated to driving industry-wide pay parity, opportunity parity, equal rights, inclusion for underrepresented groups, and better access to career opportunities. We’re investing in making our products more inclusive and accessible. And we’ve established a Supplier Diversity program to ensure that we support businesses owned by underrepresented groups.

Employee Equity

As part of our commitment to Adobe For All, we want every employee to feel they have fair compensation and opportunity. We’ve invested in analysis and transparency to demonstrate that commitment.

Pay parity

We define pay parity as ensuring that employees in the same job and location are paid fairly relative to one another, regardless of their gender or ethnicity. Learn more ›

One of the most important ways to show our employees we value them is by paying them fairly. We define pay parity as ensuring that employees in the same job and location are paid fairly relative to one another, regardless of their gender or ethnicity. We first announced that we achieved global gender pay parity in October 2018, and we’re pleased to affirm that we have maintained that gender pay parity again in 2020. Learn more >

Opportunity parity

In February 2019, we coined the term “opportunity parity” to refer to fairness in examining fairness in promotion and horizontal movement across demographic groups.  To the best of our knowledge, no companies have approached a metric like this. So, as part of our commitment, we decided to take on this challenge. Learn more >

Adobe For All Week

This year, Adobe evolved its annual diversity and inclusion event to a weeklong, virtual experience.  Adobe For All Week 2020  we f brought our global employee community together to build inclusion, empathy and connections.

The week featured Adobe executives, employee storytellers, guest speakers and engaging employee activations that showcased Adobe’s vision for of Adobe For All.
