Pros

Lots of fun, interesting, positive people working in relatively small teams. They're the ignored heart of the company. Products like QuickBooks and Turbotax throw off lots of revenue so they company continues to grow.

Cons

Smiling, insincere leaders who say they're committed to technology and innovation but don't understand what any of that means. Lots of architects who advocate this or that technology, producing lots of slide decks that get them promoted to the next level. But none of it ever happens.

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.
