Pros

Mission driven company. Hiring and performance done around values. Intuit is quite a customer-driven company. The collaborative culture is fantastic. Leadership is transparent, there is a high bar for people leaders to invest in their teams. Lots of opportunities to move around and learn new skills. Tons of focus on coaching, career development, leadership development. In my function (Marketing) we do a ton of very interesting work, and as a company, we're not afraid to try new things to ensure we are at the forefront.

Cons

Intuit is fairly agile for its size (8000 employees) but it still does feel like working for a big company. The amount of politicking needed to line up the right support and resources is too much. It is taking away from the actual work. Also, finance drives a lot of the forecasting process and often sets target that marketing can't realistically attain. The working teams are then spending inordinate amounts of time explaining why they can't reach the target, instead of actually delivering impact for customers. Lastly, there is a completely different bar for product than for marketing. Marketing can't say no to any priorities; if anything is delayed or not hitting target, there is a lot of explaining to do. Meanwhile, product launches slip by months and months, and that's fine. There is also a completely different bar for getting promoted in marketing vs product. There is tons of learning in marketing, but very limited advancement.

Pros

Benefits are amazing, medical insurance, vision and dental. Company match on 401K and volunteer time off.

Cons

They keep making decisions to outsource jobs to contract workers who don't share the same value in training or customer care. Oh they say they do but when you catch the listening to music so loud you can't hear the customer, or literally snoring on the line they can't do anything because of the way the contracts are set up. It is up to the contract company and the contract company just needs warm bodies. They did not even supply enough people doing our busiest season this year to co or the shifts that were required in the contract. So good luck with that. They will always eventually lay you off.
