Pros

Intuit is a great company with a strong history of customer focus. The company adheres to its values and treats employees well. The talent at the company is great and compensation is very competitive. The products are used by real people and you can see the direct impact of your work.

Cons

It's a big time of change. There are a lot of comments here that describe layoffs, the change in culture, concerns with management or the new CEO... My belief is that this change is incredibly important and long overdue. It's painful. The recent layoffs hit a lot of great people and in some cases it's hard to understand why certain people were selected. I believe there were mistakes made. I believe people were selected because they were working on projects that were going no where. They were assigned to those projects and although I could argue that they should have stepped up and made the case why the project needed to change, for the most part they couldn't control their assignments. In particular the Small Business Division has been through a tough time. They spent a few years on a big technology bet that made Vista look good and now, unwinding that is a mess. Sometimes people can get focused on being smart and being right rather than delivering for customers or market success. The comments about meetings are true in some areas, but in others teams move quickly and are decisive.

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.
