Pros
  1. Top-tier benefits and perks. Great insurance, ESPP, wellness reimbursement up to $1300, door-to-door shuttle service (for certain locations), internet reimbursement, $150/month for a commuter card, home office furniture/tech reimbursement, free EV charging at work, great parental leave, etc.

  2. Work-life balance is good most of the time. It depends on the team and if you have projects/teammates in different timezones.

  3. Great pay considering the work-life balance.

  4. Good job security during downturns. The company seems not to be too cutthroat during hard times.

Cons
  1. A lot of legacy code and tech moves a bit slow. Certain parts are getting better.

  2. No longer have QAs. They generally possess great product knowledge, and products seemed to have higher quality when they were around.

  3. Frontline PMs are inexperienced and keep changing, which sometimes leads to repeated mistakes and a lack of long-term vision. Still giving a 5-star review since I think some of these are big company problems rather than something specific to Intuit.

Advice to Management

Management generally does a good job.

Politics and other big company issues are definitely present, but nothing too negative for me.
