Pros

Pockets of talented, humble people looking to do the best work of their lives

Cons

When it was part of Intuit, QuickBase was an amazing place to work. Since sale in April 2016, things have taken a turn for the worse. The culture that was so beloved at the organization during the Intuit days has completely fallen apart. Employee motivation has gone through the floor and senior management is quite obviously panicking at the idea of having to survive on their own. In addition to this, personas that needed to remain hidden under the Intuit brand have come home to roost as QuickBase. What was once a senior leadership organization that prided itself on transparency, teamwork and integrity has become a clandestine totalitarian state. Decisions are seemingly made in a vacuum about direction, spend and organizational structure without input from cross-functional extended leadership teams., leading to chaos and disenfranchisement amongst the people tasked with doing the actual work.

Pros

ICs are mostly great. Decent benefits (pay is not though) There is a small but extremely loyal and wonderful customer base who believe in the product.

Cons

Insufferable leadership and middle managers that shouldn’t have a job. No unified direction. Unattainable quotas. PIP culture. High turnover. Have lost so many good people and they don’t seem to care.
