Money, easy, resume, money, free food
Intuit is great if you want to make an obscene amount of money and have the ability to not think too hard about it. They beat that ability out of me after 2 years, so I rejected the full-time offer after my second internship.
As an intern, the job is 100x easier than your coding interview. 90% of the work is going to meetings and trying to figure out exactly what they want from you so that you can finish the implementation in that last 10% of time.
The quality of teams varies greatly. On my team, no one ever teamed up on projects, getting through stand-up was a chore, and happy hours were only fun to go to for the free meal. I did not know who my mentor on my team was supposed to be for the first month and a half of my job, as I was told by my manager on the first day that "everyone is kind of like a mentor to the interns" and did not know I was supposed to have a dedicated mentor until an intern social hour halfway through the job internship. Getting help from anyone would take multiple days at times because of how overworked my team was.
This company is a great stepping stone for your career if you can look past their lack of ethics, but no one ever stays here for long. Half of the people on my team that worked there on my first day had quit and were at a different company by the last day of my second internship. I, personally, hated my time at Intuit so much that I have since quit the Computer Science field as a whole.
Quit lobbying for ridiculous tax laws to prevent redundancy and focus on helping small businesses grow.
This is probably just me, but the whole experience was terrible. My recruiter contacted me the morning of the onsite and sent me the challenge for round 1 before I arrived. I commuted from SF, so I didn't have a chance to review it. Here's my exper
The HR scheduled a call with me but never called. I tried reaching out multiple times, but she didn't think it was necessary to respond. I am very disappointed with this lack of professionalism. I hope they will respect candidates' time in the future
After a sort-of referral, I was introduced to Intuit. A recruiter contacted me to set up an on-site interview. I was interviewed by the team I would be working with. This involved five back-to-back, 45-minute interviews, one with each team member.
