Pros

Competitive pay, excellent benefits, great facility. Many technical staff members are extremely skilled in their profession.

Cons

Poor planning, same mistakes made year over year, unwillingness to invest in maintaining & improving internal systems. Poorly managed projects result in minor catastrophes every year - if not for the highly skilled technical staff, the issues would be far more apparent to our customers. Quick to embrace "fad" business trends such as process excellence/six sigma and using project management professionals (PMPs) only to abandon them when they fail. Project Management Office nothing more than a group of non-technical staff that are supposed to "manage" technical projects, but are really nothing more than fancy secretaries that track time and create more problems than they solve. Marketing and product management teams rely heavily on IT solve problems created by their own incompetence.

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.
