believe our employees are our most valuable asset and investment; fostering their ideas and well-being is essential to both our business success and the development of new technical innovations. </p> <p>Since Adobe was founded in 1982, we have been guided by a set of core values – genuine, exceptional, innovative, involved – around conducting business in an ethical and socially responsible manner. We take pride in creating a vibrant and dynamic workplace that is fueled by ingenuity and innovation and that is recognized as a top employer. We are proud to be consistently ranked among Fortune's 100 Best Places to Work, and believe that by promoting teamwork and celebrating milestones our employees will continue to succeed.</p> <p>Adobe provides our diverse, global workforce of almost 10,000 employees with robust health benefits and wellness programs; strong benefits and market-leading compensation; learning opportunities to help grow leaders and innovators at all levels; and opportunities to actively engage in our communities.</p> <p>Within this CSR focus area, you will find information about:</p> <ul> <li>Compensation and Benefits</li> <li>Professional Development</li> <li>Diversity</li> </ul> <h4>Compensation and Benefits</h4> <p>At Adobe, we know that employees are at the core of our success. Our compensation and benefits programs are designed to inspire and engage our talented employees throughout the world and to share our success with them.</p> <p>Our compensation packages are competitive and tailored for every region in which we have business operations. <a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/compensation.html" target="_blank">Visit our Career Opportunities</a> > <a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/compensation.html" target="_blank">Compensation site</a> to view our compensation packages by country. </p> <p>Adobe offers generous benefits packages to meet our employees' health and work/life needs in the regions we serve. <a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/benefits.html">View our Career Opportunities</a> > <a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/benefits.html">Benefits site </a> to learn more about the many benefits Adobe offers by country. </p> <p>As an example, in the United States, we offer each employee a comprehensive, customizable package of benefits with robust health and wellness programs, savings plans and discounts. Employees have numerous options for medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug coverage. The company also provides life insurance coverage, with group rates on any additional insurance an employee may need. </p> <p>In addition to personal time off for vacation and sick leave, we are proud to provide employees with the opportunity to earn a four-week sabbatical after five years of continuous regular employment (which increases one week up to six weeks every five years).</p> <p>Adobe also offers a dependent care reimbursement account and contributes a non-taxable US$100 per month gift to help offset the expense of child care. When normal care options fall through, Adobe provides employees with up to 100 hours per year of temporary back-up child and adult or elder care through fully licensed in-home and center-based care providers. Other benefits include an adoption assistance program, commute alternatives, educational assistance, employee discounts on Adobe software, fitness facilities and gym membership reimbursements, corporate matching for charitable gifts, and more.</p> <ul> <li><a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/compensation.html" target="_blank">Find details on Adobe compensation packages by country</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/benefits.html" target="_blank">Find details on Adobe benefits packages by country</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/careeropp/" target="_blank">Learn about a Day in the Life of Adobe and career opportunities at Adobe</a></li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120412225104/http://blogs.adobe.com/adobelife/" target="_blank">Read the Life@Adobe blog</a></li> </ul> <h4>Professional Development</h4> <p>Adobe fosters an environment that encourages professional growth and development. Our dynamic work environment encourages creativity and considers learning an essential part of the process.</p> <p>Adobe offers a broad spectrum of learning experiences, resources and other skill-building opportunities to meet the varying needs of employees. Beginning with a personalized Individual Development Plan, employees can choose from a variety of learning options including:</p> <ul> <li>On-demand eLearning courses available 24x7</li> <li>In-classroom and live, online training </li> <li>Unique opportunities to learn from external thought leaders and internal experts through leadership seminars, weekly "Knowing the Business" sessions and the Distinguished Lecture Series </li> </ul> <p>As we position ourselves for more global growth, we have put more focus on building our leadership pipeline with increased efforts in building management and leadership capabilities. We have moved from primarily classroom training to a more blended learning approach that maximizes the learning experience and leverages our leaders as teachers.</p> <p>Global employees can also tap into Adobe's Educational Reimbursement Program, which helps pay for business- and technology-related classes through accredited colleges and universities. In North America alone, Adobe invested over $1M into this program in the last 12 months.</p> <h4>Diversity</h4> <p>The diversity of ideas, backgrounds, and perspectives embodied by our employees is one of our most valuable assets, greatest strengths, and key competitive advantages. Adobe is committed to expanding, strengthening, and leveraging the diversity of our workforce. Our goal is to treat all employees with respect and integrity while valuing difference and mirroring the uniqueness of the locations where we do business. </p> <p>Adobe is dedicated to the overall development of women throughout the organization. We support a range of initiatives designed to engage and encourage female employees at all levels — from individual contributors to executive managers — to perform their best and be successful at Adobe. </p> <ul> <li><a href="/web/20120412225104/http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/diversity/" target="_blank">Learn more about Diversity at Adobe</a></li> <li><a
