Pros

* Competitive Salary and Benefits * Good insurance * Fun perks and programs, including fitness, health, and discount tickets/rates * Nice campuses

Cons

* There is a LOT of middle management and politics ... don't expect to be cared about as an individual * You will find yourself stuck in the middle ... they can't decide if they want to be big corp or small start-up - it affects everything * Moving up in your career is more about who know and who is looking out for you than what you can deliver ... even if you move up, expect setbacks * It is not remote worker friendly ... policies will change and possibly impact how much you travel or if you can even keep your position * You are judged for how much extra time you do or don't put in ... you are expected to make sacrificies (consistently) to spend extra hours delivering for them * They ARE a big corp and you are ultimately just a number ... expect to be impacted by downsizing, restructuring, etc.

Unethical company & mgmt.

Pros

The benefits, such as health care and 401K are the only reason to stay here. A paycheck is a necessity. Some people stay here many years, but probably because they are too lazy or ignorant to get a job elsewhere where they may need to actually work. If you are a phony person who can be a cheerleader under the worst of circumstances, this is the place for you.

Cons

Sketchy business practice This is, by far, the most unethical company I have ever worked for. In the 8 1/2 yrs I have been here I have witnessed employees being bullied by coworkers and mgmt. I have seen mgmt leave for off site "meetings" and come back drunk and with shopping bags - this is if they come in at all that day. I have seen entire depts laid off, only to reopen later with new employees that make much less than the previous team (or overseas). employees will work while off the clock just to make their numbers. Mgmt knows and actually promotes this. Do not disagree and do everything they tell you to do and you will get ahead. Nepotism is high, but only for the favorite employees. When it is review time, your mgr will ask your peers for their opinions and this will influence your raise or promotion. Not everyone is given equal opportunity for advancement, only a select few will receive info about a promotional position and "invited" to apply/interview. By the time you learn of the position, another person has already been earmarked for it. No opportunity to advance. All moves will be lateral unless you are a favorite "yes man". This way you don't get paid more. Finally, if you do something really well, your mgr will take the credit for it, even when you have proof you did the work. If you dare to say anything you will be harassed and eventually either leave or get terminated by something they will construct you have done.

Pros

-get to work with some very intelligent people who know their craft very well -everyone is nice -flexible work-from-home days on Fridays -gym, free bikes, basketball court, a focus on work-life balance and health initiatives

Cons

-way too many cooks and middle managers in the kitchen -approvals take forever in terms of direction and also getting necessary tools/software to do your job -low to no visibility or transparency from executive level meetings. You are just told what to do and are expected to follow. Blatant bullying and mediocracy from management: -depending on what kind of manager you have, it could make your life miserable or great. I have seen some inspiring managers who are true innovation leaders, and others who are lazy, nitpick, micromanage, and offer no support for their team except for when the team produces results. -manager will openly throw you under the bus to look good or to further their own agenda. -If you're stuck with a manager who doesn't do anything but talk and positions her/himself to be the decision maker in every circumstance regardless of if there are qualified PMs or specialists on a project, good luck or start looking for other opportunities. -passive aggressive management. Very junior or completely lacking in social skills when it comes to managing interpersonal relationships. Management has a habit of escalating problems to uninvolved 3rd parties or even loops in HR because they don't want to get their hands dirty and are apathetic to your needs. -manager will not take responsibility for any of their actions, statements, and shortcomings. Will deflect any legitimate complaints back at you. They will make you feel terrible and question your own self-esteem, worth and experience/observations. -very clique-y and political -mass exodus of top talent and tenured execs of more than 10+ yrs in recent months, causing low morale and a general sentiment of malaise, anxiety, and fear. -Intuit seems to think reorgs every 6 months are good for the health of their employees -lack of alignment from BUs cascade to other teams, or get lost in the cascade. Objectives in initiatives not clear (poorly thought out strategy) -not as innovative as they claim they are. Ingrained in old and questionable data, thus sticking to"safe" legacy practices -company rests on its laurels or the fact that they've been around long enough to become a household name. Marketing uses smoke and mirror tactics to remedy a bad product
