Intuit

Good salary, bonus, and stock options.

Cool office and respected brand name.

Industry-leading products.

Very high employee attrition. Most employees cannot stay for more than 2-3 years. Either one has to be working on a successful project or belong to a clique to stick around.

Every year, spring brings a musical chair of who will stay and who will be let go. An ugly blame game follows, breaking people's spirit and sense of personal dignity. One could witness adult men crying.

Once all the dirty business is taken care of, the company will have a song and dance summer party where the CEO will crack jokes in his southern, folksy accent and the CFO will talk about how all accounting books are looking great (with reduced financial liability).

Come summer, they will hire younger, cheaper, and fresher faces who will continue to fuel its innovation engine.

After all, people are disposable.

Break the hidden inner tribes and cliques.

Question whether such high attrition results in gained productivity.
