Pros: Excellent salary, great campus, and benefits. Plenty of experience to gain from working here.

Cons: The company is desperately pushing for AI in order to hire fewer engineers, but is not sure how to implement it yet. Plus, there's the feeling of competing against coworkers due to layoffs every year. There are also no clear performance metrics outlined when onboarding. The quality of work from senior-level engineers is questionable for being a top tech company. Most have probably played the politics game well enough to remain on a team long-term. At the moment, H1B visas and cutting costs appear to be the company's priority over quality, as of when I left. This is foreshadowing endless tech debt for full-time employees in the future.

Pros: Friendly and helpful teammates. Solid onboarding process. Was grateful that I was given an opportunity to code React front-end web apps with this company. It was challenging, but in a good way, to keep up with their systems and capabilities using a modern tech stack they had in place.

Cons: I didn’t like how contractors didn’t get the opportunity to join team meetings with directors of the product I was developing, and also other team meetings. I also didn’t like how, as a contractor, I had to ask for reviews every once in a while, as I was told the managers are technically not allowed to coach due to Intuit policies based on past lawsuits.

Pros: Good place to work in the Bay.

Cons: Could have given free food.
