Pros

Decent benefits, the pay is lacking, and the RSUs are mid-range when compared to other companies.

Cons

Intuit is structured in a way that managers have a lot of control.

Managers at Intuit do not generally have technical backgrounds. If they do, they likely didn't make it to Senior or Staff.

Intuit obsesses over "culture." If you read between the lines, this term is always used when someone doesn't want to say something out loud.

Leaders don't live by the values but preach them constantly, like a religion.

The DEI dashboard only factors in race and gender, so it's an obvious flag that Intuit has taken a half-hearted approach to DEI and its understanding of it.

Advice to Management

Stop enabling and giving so much power to managers. Promote engineering leaders and their influence rather than proxying it through management.

Stop obsessing over mandating "culture"; it starts to sound really predatory at times.
