Pros

Intuit is great place for work / life balance -- you really can have a full life outside work. My manager would check in periodically for the whole team to make sure that everyone's workload was manageable. Additionally, Intuit provides a standard full array of benefits, as one would expect from a software firm of this size. For technical folks, Intuit provides a dual-track career path -- one leads to management, and the other leads to software architect. While there obviously is some availability problems at the high end, it appears you can stay "geeky" and make it pretty far up the career ladder. Software engineers appear pretty well supported. Although as an intern, I was in a cube, all full time employees had their own offices, and good support facilities at the new San Diego campus. Oh, and the intern program is very good -- lots of events (internal and external) and decently interesting work.

Cons

As with any large corporation, there is some amount of corporate/MBA-speak. Review forms sometimes teem with motivational topic headings and other ambiguous-but-hopeful metrics, that you are supposed to review your past performance and plan ahead with.

Pros

I loved working at Intuit. I believed in everything they told me and in the company's vision. The salary and benefits were great. I had great jobs at Intuit. I had great managers at Intuit. I was extremely well rewarded for my performance and continually told how well I was doing, which was reinforced by my reviews and bonuses. I had never been happier with my career in my life. The entire time I was there, I only had great things to say about Intuit (and I still do)

Cons

However, in 2003, the company had a drop in the stock's price and management decided to eliminate my position. They gave me one month to find another job or else take the severance package. I took the package because (1) it was a generous package and (2) I felt disillusioned by the total turnaround in the situation. In one month, things went from, "You are great" and "The function you run is one of the core values at Intuit" to "Thank you, you did an excellent job. Here's an enhanced severance package to reflect that excellent performance. Now get out of here." I really don't know what happened or what changed. I assume it was politics behind the scenes that I will never know about. I even asked senior management that if I was such a great performer, wouldn't they want to help me find another position within the Intuit? But they said no, that was my responsibility. I left feeling disillusioned about the vision and values I had believed in.

Pros

A commitment to employees and building products that set out to make the complex simple...changing people's lives for the better.

Cons

Shifting the misperception that Intuit is yesterday's desktop software company, when it has half of it's revenues in hosted applications and is a strong, growing company.
