Intuit

Much opportunity to contribute and overachieve. Respectable benefits package. Work/life balance and flexibility. Progressive culture emphasizing things like fitness and environment. Management actually seems to respond to feedback. Diverse training opportunities and support.

We're out of touch with industry (but we do know it). Too many cooks in the kitchen, so we get in our own way. Typical politics and bureaucracy of a large organization. We celebrate sufficiency. We have a follower mindset.

Productivity is not very high -- stop hiring!

Train, empower, and reassign the workforce we already have to maximize their potential.

Put the right people in the right positions: I can think of tens of people who are at the wrong level working on the wrong projects merely because someone with longer tenure has seniority.

One of our own values is 'Be Bold,' yet we are very conservative both internally and externally (love the recent marketing output though) -- try stuff, fail fast, shake things up, innovate!

If we can maintain the laid-back, flexible culture that allows everyone to be great family members and live well-rounded lives while also pushing our bar up a notch or two, we'd be in a great spot.
