I was surprised to read many of the same opinions on Glassdoor as what I see at Intuit. That is, if you want to work at Intuit, San Diego, you should be ready to do as you are told and never voice your opinion. Managers like to micromanage down to the hourly details. Many very intelligent people have been laid off for being too outspoken. It's a shame that great talent has left the company.
Turnover at Intuit is high. It's common for people to work at Intuit for a year or two and move on to other companies. Middle managers take the enjoyment out of working for Intuit. They can throw you under the bus when you least expect it. Co-workers are great though.
Innovation is encouraged but the only time to do it is after hours. Those who work extensive hours (such as 60 yours per week) will be promoted. Otherwise, if you do your work and do it well in a 40 hour work week it will take years to get a promotion.
There are not many women engineers that work at Intuit and the majority of those employed are from India. There is a definite disproportion of male to female engineers. You will notice it once you start going to meetings. Most people at Intuit are very young so if you fit that mold then you will like it.
I can't speak highly of Intuit as a whole so I don't refer my friends for jobs. There are many opportunities in San Diego of which I will be pursuing.
Lastly don't ask Human Resources for any help if you have a problem with a manager. HR is employed to side with the manager no matter what. I've never witnessed an HR department like this.
