Intuit reviews

Intuit has changed drastically for employees over the last couple of years. It's as if the senior management received an email from the CEO that doing right by employees is no longer necessary. And this change started before the recession (but is now an open secret). Now Intuit is becoming a tops-down, hierarchical "big" company that treats employees as commodities rather than people. Training has all but disappeared. Coaching is almost gone. And moving into new job assignments (to gain experience) is harder than ever. The new way is to just hire a new one from outside rather than waste your time developing an existing employee. This is a big change from years past. The politics have always been tough at Intuit, but now senior management disrespects employees with impunity. If you rank lower than the person talking in a meeting, you cannot disagree. A culture of fear pervades the place, and it is a waste of all those intelligent coworkers I mentioned above. To top this off, the latest mantra at Intuit is around innovation, but the new management style will lead to anything but. And if that's not enough, morale is extremely low, so work is a downer. I can't count the number of employees who have described how they go home at night and cry about work. The stress is not worth the paycheck.

Two cultures, public face to the employees is all about growth, leadership development, innovation... Private executive culture is highly political and hypocritical with respect to the values the company preaches.
