Pros

Good benefits. Great stock purchasing program. They are very good at talking a big game, but it feels like culture leftover from founder Scott Cook a long time ago, so now it feels like they're just going through the motions.

Cons

Pay is not great compared to peers. Promotion processes are convoluted. You need a director or above to sponsor your application. Extremely slow product development hampered by red tape and invisible gatekeepers. When they acquired the company I worked for, they threw tons of resources at switching our product to their One Intuit login. Last I heard, it's still in progress 3 years later. Their marketing is out of touch as well. They spent millions on a silly robot superbowl commercial while I worked there, it was awful. They also heavily lobbied congress for less tax filing rights for normal people (for their benefit). They committed to spend $500 million to put their name on an L.A. stadium while simultaneously firing hundreds of critical customer support workers in 2020 in the middle of COVID to outsource.

Pros

Pays well, nice work notebooks, don't check office attendance until they need someone to fire

Cons

My whole team and management up to VP level are on visa or offshore. They're not interested in including other cultures. No direction except looking good for immediate manager. Lots of favouritism too. Expectation to accommodate offshore times. Tech is a legacy hodgepodge of unnecessary implementations that only we're made for the resume of the developer. People let go randomly, so no use to work hard or smart, only thing that matters is if the right manager likes you.
