People are here to help you learn more, rather than retrieving what is already with you.

Software Engineering Co-op (Current Employee)
Mountain View, CA

I have been working at Intuit as an intern for less than a year

ProsThe company will make you comfortable more than enough. You will not have to worry about pretty much anything.

ConsThere are no downsides that I could find out so far. It has been a nice experience and I hope it will continue to be.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Excellent corporate culture, great location, motivated and talented team

Senior Software Engineer (Former Employee)
San Diego, CA

I worked at Intuit full-time for less than a year

Pros- great benefits
- nice new building
- challenging but interesting work
- opportunities for growth and advancement in house

Cons- can be difficult to navigate the complex onboarding process (obtaining access to systems)
- information outside of your group is difficult to obtain (wikis are sometimes out of date or flat out wrong)
- intracompany support/ticketing system is incredibly crappy (took almost three weeks just to get an account login for a server that I needed access to)

Advice to Senior Management- keep focused on pleasing the customer (usability)

Intuit is a great, humane place to work with the spirit of constant learning

Senior Product Marketing Manager (Current Employee)
Menlo Park, CA

I have been working at Intuit full-time for more than 7 years

ProsLot's of good leadership, appetite for innovation and trying new things, support for new ideas development, the spirit of constant learning and improving. My colleagues are bright, articulate, and are friends, not just co-workers.

ConsThe leadership you work for has had a huge impact on whether I have a good experience or not. There are still leaders who seem to undermine the effectiveness of their organizations, but fewer than before

A great place to work where you can learn new skills or hone your existing ones

Anonymous Employee (Former Employee)

I worked at Intuit full-time for more than 8 years

ProsNo matter your role you are considered a leader, tuition reimbursement so you can turn a job at Intuit into a career, competitive pay, great healthcare plans, realistic bonus pay targets, work from home opportunities, friendly work environments, and great company values

ConsDespite having great company values that the company tries to live up to, and claims are the foundation upon which it is built, Intuit falls short of these values all too often. For instance, Intuit aspires to have Integrity Without Compromise, which says "We hold ourselves and each other to the highest standards in all we say and do. Our actions and communications are always direct, honest, and transparent.", however these values are often discarded by individuals at the company when it is convenient, and aside from the outright breaking of company policy, most of the time no one is held accountable when the company values are ignored.

Advice to Senior ManagementMy advice to management is to hold to the Intuit values in all things big and small. Never disregard a company value just because it is convenient for you or the company, or because you may personally disagree with it. If you wish the foundation upon which Intuit is built, its values, to be strong, then you must make it strong and keep it that way. If you cannot do this, then you should revise your company values.

Loved it then, still love it now.

Software Engineer II (Current Employee)
San Diego, CA

I have been working at Intuit full-time for less than a year

ProsIntuit is, by far, one of the best companies to work for in this day and age for software engineers. Then again, it really depends on the team you're in and what you're planning to do. The greatest thing about working here is the work/life balance and their attitude towards learning and succeeding. That, and I never feel bogged down by countless meetings or other things that would otherwise hinder my ability to perform the tasks assigned to me (or picked by me).

Also, the perks are quite fantastic, as are the people working here. You can learn a lot just by asking a few questions - and that's one thing you're never short of as a new employee.

If you're looking for a great place to work with greats benefits, work/life balance, and attitude, this is the place.

ConsThere's no real cons that I can really pinpoint this early in my career. Having to pay for lunch, maybe. :)

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep doing what you do and really strive to maintain a connection with those under your wing. Attitude makes a big difference!

Have learned a lot and Intuit is very employee friendly.

Sales Representative (Current Employee)
Fredericksburg, VA

I have been working at Intuit full-time for more than 7 years

ProsInternal promotions. Empowers employees to make decisions with minimal approval processes. Encourage growth and offer training to grow within the company.

ConsThe pay at times is not rewarding for the level of work requested. Many desirable positions are filled by outside hires when very capable internals are available.

Good people, good work-life balance

Software Engineering Intern (Former Employee)
San Diego, CA

I worked at Intuit as an intern for less than a year

ProsThe work is what you make of it. Whether or not you will find a product interesting is different for every person. There are plenty of projects.
The company doesn't seem to ever require crunch time, so you get to have a life outside work.
The people I worked with were all very cool and we hung out outside of work.

ConsThe same as above. Some people might be bored of working on a tax program that requires a lot of process and validation before major releases.

Advice to Senior ManagementNone

I learned a great deal about saas

Sales/CS (Current Employee)
Englewood, CO

I have been working at Intuit full-time for more than a year

ProsThe benefits are absolutely amazing. The people I worked with were terrific and the management was outstanding.

ConsIt was a call center environment and I am used to being out and about or working from home.

Advice to Senior ManagementI feel your management style is spot on (no micro management) but plenty of help when needed. I also found constant training to be beneficial.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
