      Deeply Hurt, Left Without Support, Stripped of Dignity - Staff Software Engineer Intuit Employee Review

      Pros

      Good benefits Good compensation (if everything goes well) Decent work life balance (If you are in good team and got good manager)

      Cons

      Hidden layoff culture disguised as “Do Not Meet Expectations” (DNME), where managers are asked to provide names arbitrarily. Managers often select employees based on role redundancy, personal bias, or lack of rapport—not clear performance issues. After selecting a name, the company retroactively builds a paper trail of “poor performance” over months to justify the decision, rather than addressing real issues upfront. Performance feedback is vague and inconsistent, lacking a formal PIP process despite repeated mentions of “not meeting expectations.” No consideration or empathy shown for employees’ personal crises, despite significant variable pay and RSUs tied to retention. Internal transfer requests are dismissed, even when skills are relevant in other teams and the current role is redundant. Overall, the process feels like a forced exit under the guise of performance management, leaving employees deeply hurt and stripped of dignity.

      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.
