Vantaggi
The benefits at Intuit are second to none. They offer amazing medical, dental, vision and perks. Only 3 weeks of vacation which is a little weak for this day and age but the onsite gym and cafeteria make your days easy and hassle free. They also offer paid volunteer time every year so you can get some time in doing volunteer work for your favorite charities. There was a lot of anonymity with my role so I felt that I had the freedom to manage my projects the way I wanted to.
Svantaggi
Management does nothing to keep their top talent. It seems like they tend to keep promoting the same undeserving people while others who work their butts off get completely ignored. The company is old so they try to tack Agile on an old waterfall process and it just doesn't work. Intuit talks a great deal about honesty, transparency, and values but when it comes down to it, they only expect that of regular employees. Managers are constantly having secret meetings and you are usually the last person to know when a decision has been made behind closed doors that directly affects your job. The secrecy is maddening. The company in general is so bogged down by process and bureaucracy that it's amazing anything ever gets done. In the end, Turbotax is the bread and butter for this company so if you're not working for that team in any way, then your chances for success are slim to none.
