Intuit reviews

The politics of it all disgusted me. People would be more interested in throwing together a powerpoint presentation just to inflate their egos vs actually solving a problem. Also, the outsourcing to other companies and countries is a problem. Management found ways to fire people instead of layoffs. Layoffs are bad publicity especially in a recession and many employees are/were stockholders too. I've read the previous posts and honestly think that those are of management replies trying to brown-nose or save their skin. All is not good at Intuit. All one has to do to get a clear picture of what the employee morale is like is to look at the Fortunes' 100 Best Companies to Work For list. In 2009, Intuit was 49, which is a continuous drop over previous years, and in 2010 it has almost dropped off the list clinging to 94.

-Silo'd products - no comprehensive strategy -Fiefdoms run by ego laden GM's - cooperation to a common strategy doesn't happen - there is no "one intuit" -Fast brain drain of innovators - only a few small pockets where innovation is happening -Employees and leaders are scared to take risks - thus - nothing gets done. Most employees staying low and trying not to stick out.
