The read

Adobe added 99 people in 90 days—net +85—with sales absorbing the most hires (6), followed by marketing (5) and operations (4). The company is investing in AI positioning and regulated-industry expansion: new leadership includes a VP-level Head of AI Evangelism for EMEA and a Senior Director heading regulated-industry sales. On the departure side, three VP-level leaders left in the quarter, moving to monday.com (Asia business development), DEPT® (EMEA presales), and Meta (a Senior Director from Gen AI product and monetization). Inbound talent flowed from Salesforce (2) and AWS; exits scattered across Google (2) and smaller firms.
