Pros: Great compensation for interns. There are a lot of activities going on that help get acclimated with the company. They offer a lot of opportunities to explore new technologies and work on projects besides day-to-day work, and they recognize employees that discover new opportunities for the company.

Cons: I personally don't agree with the direction the company may be headed in, or where their priorities lie. But they are very transparent to the employees about this and are open to questions and suggestions from everyone. They provide an open opportunity for every employee to offer suggestions and the ability to transform the direction of the company.

Pros: Good benefits, competitive total compensation outside of the Bay Area, and a decent tech stack. Engineering leadership at this company is great, but it's not very empowered. This is not what you would call an engineer-driven company. Before you read my cons, read this: There are some great parts of Intuit. They're tucked away and managed by people that came from large tech firms. Intuit Platform is a mix of purchases and very legacy tech; neither are fun to work for, and neither are very loyal in any sense. Come to Intuit, just don't come to Intuit Platform.

Cons: Senior leadership enabled and encouraged a process of reclassifying people from software support positions, like quality assurance, operations, and site reliability engineering, without downleveling engineering leaders. This created chaos within the engineering ranks, and these same leaders have now adopted strategies claiming that they didn't eradicate these programs. Everything is vendored. Intuit Platform will always prefer buy over build and actively pressures its engineers to follow this model. We recently had a business leader tell us that Zoom was a model native application. Leadership lacks focus on process and at times tries to own too much without letting engineers run the show. Some managers can be combative and, at times, hostile. Other managers are totally aloof, and it seems they make every decision off of gut instinct. Managers often times lack backgrounds in software engineering. I had one that continually mixed up Git and GitHub. Clear favoritism is played when evaluating yearly bonuses (among other things), even after a revamping of the review process. Engineers now get to choose who gives them peer review, but a manager can arbitrarily decide who gets what bonus. This totally defeats the purpose.

Pros: Good pay, stock, 401k, and health benefits.

Cons: Upper and middle management
