Intuit
My day at Intuit - the creators of Quickbook!
Multiple 68 inch plasma screen TVs in every floor. Xbox 360s, PS3s, and Wiis everywhere. I’ve never seen so much candy, too! It’s like Halloween and they just have so much candy everywhere. They have a gym, volleyball and basketball court, an “inspiration room” with pool tables, airhockey, foosball,… bar. A Cafetaria that is more like a food court with a dedicated chef from “Hollywood” dawning a Dolce-Gabanna hat. You can have a gourmet dinner for lunch. Company HAPPY HOUR EVERY FRIDAY 4pm, free beer and BBQ for all at the central plaza of the campus.
This is the definition of a dream job. It’s like working (living!) at a 5 class hotel. Everything is so high tech and state-of-the -art. The people there are hilarious. The food snacks there are addicting! Everyone working there jokes that they all have gained 10lbs first half of the year working after they started the job.
Intuit - the company responsible for the wonder that is Quickbook and Turbotax. Most of you here have probably never used it, but apparently 22 million other people in world do! Last Friday I had the opportunity to do a job shadow (actually it was more like a combination of a workshop). I went with their Experience and Design branch and they showed me a lot of their research techniques and design process. All I have to say is… WOW. This is like everything that I’ve been learning at school. I wish I kinda spent more time on the details in some of my classes. It was like hands on application of all the things I have learned to do!
I sent in my Resume and hopefully, I already have one foot in the door and will get the job! It’s paid, too!
