Pros

You get plenty of free food, decent salary, stocks if that’s what you want.

Cons

1. Extremely toxic culture. No respect for a technologist. 2. Lack of good work makes everyone get a bite from a bigger chunk which creates a rat race and in that exercise the value of work diminishes. 3. Mutual trust within the team is virtually non-existent. 4. Sharing of information is rare. 5. Intuit laid off almost 7.3% of its Global workforce in the wake of covid-19 spike and as per Reuters, the company described this as a regular activity to align to its objective of becoming AI driven company. I agree the company has every right to do that, but during an ongoing pandemic, when nothing ever seen like that, when Globally people are suffering, when there are Globally many CEOs who let go their salary to keep their headcount intact, and especially when Intuit boosts so much about employee care, that reminds me of the quote from William Shakespeare, "all that glitters is not gold"!

Pros

I really enjoyed working with Intuit because it was a fast paced environment that pushed me to grow professionally. I appreciated the strong focus on customer experience, the support from leadership, and the opportunity I had to advance into a Tier 2 role within the same season. It strengthened my communication, problem solving, and multitasking skills while allowing me to help customers during stressful situation

Cons

One challenge for me was feeling somewhat disconnected from upper management and operations leadership at times. Most of my direct support and communication came from my team leads, who were very hands on and helpful. I tend to work best in environments where there is strong visibility and engagement from leadership across all levels.
