Adobe headquarters
June 10th, 2008Scott Barttell (Director of World wide sales operations at Adobe) offered a tour of their headquarters. Are you kidding! Sign me up! So a couple weeks back I got to make the trip. Impressive.
Adobe one of the best technical companies of this generation, and their thoughtfulness and expertise in meeting needs/wants certainly translates over to their headquarters. Certainly the three towers are lavish where it counts. These towers host 3,000 well trained employees, and seem fit for them. Interesting the office spaces are humble. I signed a 3 page NDA twice about not giving away the Adobe secrets, or something, so, I hope I am not breaking that!
Lunch was great. There were a dozen gourmet chefs lined up waiting for our lunch time commands. It was fantastic! All the meals were $5-$9. The grass was beautifully trimmed, the seats comfy, the glass sparkling. Such thoughtfulness and good process management goes into all this, it’s amazing.
Well, I could go on, but I think you understand how impressed I was. I am inspired to care about the little things in the same way they did. It helps you recognize the big things!
