Pros

* Had great experiences over many years (though 2013 or so) * Many great people who truly care about customers * Great salary & benefits

Cons

* Very frequent reorgs (yes "change" is constant, but this is more like "churn") * Some truly incompetent management, especially at the middle layer * Too much focus on personalities, too little focus on whether an idea makes sense * Very political environment which requires significant energy to navigate * Very difficult to get anything done (requires consensus and popularity vs. merit) * Focus on process rather than progress * Antiquated technology and no real understanding of what it means to be Agile. Also, much depends on one's immediate manager (as with any place.) If you wind up stuck with a bad one -- perhaps as a result of the near continuous reorgs -- there's no recourse. It breaks my heart to say this, as I loved working at Intuit for many years. It's only now that I've left (after more than 20 years) that I realize a job doesn't have to be this way. I am now at a company where the work and delivering for customers matters more than the politics and personalities ... unfortunately that is not the case at Intuit.

Pros

Used to be a good company. Good people from that era that haven’t left yet or been laid off. Free coffee from baristas featuring local roasteries

Cons

Quite possibly one of the worse run companies. Last minute changes to appease the CEO, interlocks on interlocks with no one knowing who is leading and expecting finance to know everything, overly reliant on finance to make up for other teams’ lack, recent leadership and manager hires have been subpar and asking far too much of their employees. Everyone is burnt out. No more smiles. If the job market wasn’t a problem, I doubt many would still be there
