Intuit Software Developer reviews

Too many Indians in Management, started dirty politics. Ultimately will take over company similar way happened in MSFT and GOOG.

Senior leadership enabled and encouraged a process of reclassifying people from software support positions like quality assurance, operations, and site reliability engineering without downleveling engineering leaders. This created chaos within the engineering ranks and these same leaders have now adopted strategies claiming that they didn't eradicate these programs. Everything is vendored. Intuit Platform will always prefer buy over build and actively pressures its engineers to follow this model. We recently had a business leader tell us that Zoom was a model native application. Leadership lacks focus on process and at times tries to own too much without letting engineers run the show. Some managers can be combative and at times hostile. Other managers are totally aloof and it seems make every decision off of gut instinct. Managers often times lack backgrounds in software engineering. I had one that continually mixed up git and GitHub. Clear favoritism is played when evaluating yearly bonuses (among other things), even after a revamping of the review process. Engineers now get to choose who gives them peer review, but a manager can arbitrarily decide who gets what bonus. This totally defeats the purpose.
