Intuit Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"When I first started at Intuit, I loved working there. The benefits were good, the work was steady and reasonable, and everybody was friendly and easy to get along with. By the time I left, Intuit was having yearly layoffs and work hours were horrific with no compensation or recognition for those who went above and beyond. Working the weekends, holidays, and during vacations were a GIVEN. My boss would routinely deny people vacation times even though vacations were requested months in advance and regardless of whether there had been a death in the family (or friends). Instead of laying people off, she would fire them so that the business unit could save money by not having to offer a severance package. Unfortunately, Intuit is now a place where you can expect to work long, grueling hours (with no compensation) and where you will, on an annual basis, fear that you will lose your job."

"I have worked for Intuit for almost twelve years first as engineer and later on as sr. development manager. It is a great company - it is big but still strives to operate as a startup. Recently company is undergoing a lot of changes, so if you are looking for stability, you may need to think if you want to join. However, if you are excited about work and startup-like environment and a self-starter, you will thrive at Intuit. And when it comes to compensation and benefits, it is very difficult to find another company like this."

"Awesome place to work. There is a reason it makes the top 10 Fortune Best Places to Work every year. Couldn't have picked a better place to start my career."

"Pros – Employees work together and collaborate well, compensation and benefits are solid, good risk control support and colleagues are bright, intelligent people that have lots of intellectual capital to share. Cons – Upper level divisional management is stale and full of personal fiefdoms. No real opportunity for advancement within the organization. Advice to Senior Management – Really revamp. Clean house and create a sense of vision, leadership and empowerment with your underwriting team. Loss ratios won't improve if underwriters don't take a vested interest because they do not feel empowered."

"I found this company to be mostly disorganized and lacking in its employee training methods. It was a friendly environment, but very unstable when it came to protocol."

"I have worked at Intuit for the last 6 and half years as an engineer developing data warehouse scripts, alerts, reports and functions. I have also become fluent in Business Objects and constructed a Universe for the Echo systems data warehouse data. Over the last two years I became a Scrum Master for two separate groups using Jira and Rally agile tools. I started working at Intuit to become familiar with data warehousing and to add that knowledge to my Oracle application and tool set experience."

"I worked for Intuit for one year, it was great on paper. There was a lot of internal issues with management, and eventually brought this to light. Unfortunately had to pursue new opportunities due to discrepancies that would have caused a major breach in security that they were unaware of, and I refused to take the blame for. I respect all HEAD leaders, and those directly below, its the front-line managers who have the big britches so to speak and use favoritism."

"My tenure with Intuit over the past year has been good, but it really depends on the managers who someone works for. As long as the work gets done, that's all they really care about but they don't take into an account all various dependencies that we developers must adhere too and a lot of times fix. I wanted to learn more, but with the vast work-load and aggressive timelines, it was difficult to spend time outside of these projects to learn new technologies. Intuit's a great place to work."

"For 2 yrs, I have found that there are pockets of teams that are working on passionate and innovative work."
