Credit Karma reviews

- Historically, against any remote work. For multiple years the subject of remote or hybrid work would come up every year, and leadership wouldn't budge until the pandemic. Recently, there's been a push to return to office with a hybrid model where employees are in-office a few days a week. From what I know, the reception seems mixed but leadership is steadfast in bringing employees back to office. - Some engineering teams, especially engineering infrastructure teams, are very slow to move for one reason or another. Oftentimes, they seem understaffed but can also be unfriendly, unhelpful, and unwelcoming of outside contributing. Similarly, some internal tooling is dated and slow to improve or under-resourced and left to the product teams to maintain. - Now that Credit Karma is owned by Intuit a lot of changes to the company have happened and will continue to happen. Credit Karma products are integrating with other Intuit products, especially TurboTax. This is exciting from a scale standpoint, but might prioritize fewer exciting Credit Karma product big bets and the company overall has a more "corporate" feeling. - Lost some of its funky charm as its grown. - Depending on what team you're on and who your manager is, you could have more challenge than others to get opportunities for career growth and promotions. In some cases, there are a lot of senior-level and above employees that bring questionable value for their level. Some high-potential or high-value employees are undervalued. - No more free meals and fewer and less frequent team outings (as of 2022). - Unless you're senior-level or above flexibility in long-term time-off, such as for a sabbatical, is unlikely to be approved. This excludes maternity and baby-bonding leave.

Had a high schoolish atmosphere where if you knew the execs at the top and had pull you could move ahead, otherwise didn't matter how much you hussled an excuse would always be found for not moving people forward. I'm glad I didn't waste more of my career here.
