Pros

Intuit is a great place to work. The people are their biggest assets. When I joined right out of college, I found the senior engineers to be very helpful in making sure I could learn the ropes fast. Lots of focus on innovation, failing fast, and hypothesis-based testing. Great benefits as well.

Cons

All the focus on failing fast and lean startup sometimes does not work well because then you don't give ideas incubation time. There have been many times when great ideas get shot down before testing them out more comprehensively. Also, some terrible acquisition decisions in the past.

Advice to Management

Continue hiring the great people you hire and the innovation-focused development. Focus more on the company's goal and make acquisition decisions accordingly.
