Pros

Most people are great to work with. The development teams are full of great talent, and collaboration on the front line is excellent. Facilities are very good. What we produce is very good and I take great pride in our products. Senior leadership communicates often and is fairly in touch with the workers.

Cons

Compensation is not based on performance, or is at least very inconsistent and vague. Childish office politics and lack of respect for employees has grown in recent years. Almost a complete lack of leadership from middle management, who spend more time covering their own interests than those of their reports. Has shifted dramatically from an environment of development and creativity into a rampant focus on failure, fear, and discouragement.

Pros

I really enjoyed working with Intuit because it was a fast paced environment that pushed me to grow professionally. I appreciated the strong focus on customer experience, the support from leadership, and the opportunity I had to advance into a Tier 2 role within the same season. It strengthened my communication, problem solving, and multitasking skills while allowing me to help customers during stressful situation

Cons

One challenge for me was feeling somewhat disconnected from upper management and operations leadership at times. Most of my direct support and communication came from my team leads, who were very hands on and helpful. I tend to work best in environments where there is strong visibility and engagement from leadership across all levels.
