Pros

Stocks - still pretty good. General pay, especially if you're a lateral hire is well above market standards. Interview process is unique and very nice, although you will mostly get incompetent interviewers.

Cons

Internal politics and way too much importance on 'image' for GTPW rankings. Work culture is atrocious to say the least. Open bias and favoritism is rampant, with zero fear of consequences - there isn't really any reverse feedback collected for managers (there is a pulse survey, but it's largely inconsequential). Work in india location is mostly pedantic and throwaway work that American teams don't want to do (the leadership there is a lot more bullish and actually fights and succeeds in getting work for the team). Here the leadership lacks any kind of spine, right down from the director. Indian middle managers here are mostly either petty, small minded or downright incompetent. Since there is a lack of good work here, managers depend on factors like diversity numbers to stay relevant - this in turn leads to alarming levels of bias and favoritism. Staff engineers are repeatedly asked not to downrate certain hires, but pick somebody else instead.

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.
