Vacation and paid holidays

Adobe provides time off so you can relax and recharge. Please make arrangements with your manager before taking time off.

How much you earn

Full-time employees and interns earn 30 days of vacation each year after completing one year of service. You can take the full 30 days, or you can take 20 days and cash out 10 days.

Discuss your planned time off with your manager then complete and submit your request for vacation days through Workday. For step-by-step instructions on completing your request, view this vacation request document [PDF].

Make sure to request your vacation at least 30 days in advance so that payroll has time to process your request before your vacation starts.
