Thirty-seven years ago Intuit Ltd founder Scott Cook witnessed his wife struggling to balance the family chequebook. It inspired him to create Quicken, a product that went on to revolutionise personal finance – and so the Intuit international brand began.
The company has gone on to develop a range of desktop and cloud-based software that helps customers – accountants, small businesses, the self-employed and individuals – to manage their finances.
Ten years after its start, Intuit, with its headquarters in Mountain View, California, opened an office in Maidenhead. It has since moved to London Victoria and has more than 250 employees – and counting.
The company's best-known brand here is QuickBooks, which allows small ventures and the self-employed to manage their finances and grow their businesses. QuickBooks is the fastest-growing and No 1 accounting software in the UK.
When employees started working from home, they took what they needed from the office such as their laptops and phones. However, many still didn't have the correct equipment to carry out their job safely. This was especially an issue for the customer service team, who needed reliable internet. Intuit started shipping out people's actual office equipment but this was difficult for staff outside London. So it simplified the process with a list of items that could be ordered directly.
Despite growing into a company of over 9,000 across eight countries on five continents, Intuit has always aimed to maintain the mindset of a start-up – coupled with the strength of experience of a global corporation.
The leader of this organisation runs this organisation based on sound moral principles
Once the UK went into lockdown, senior managers took the decision to immediately schedule the company-wide All Hands meeting from fortnightly to weekly, and to make it virtual. It started with a Covid-19 update from Intuit's UK manager that outlined the latest business changes – and also updated employees on the support available to them.
I love working for this organisation
The company supports special interest groups including Pride, Womens Network, Latino Network, Next Generation Internet and African Ancestry. Working in partnership, these networks took turns in hosting fun events, quizzes and activities for parents and their children to ensure that employees working remotely felt supported and remained engaged.
I am happy with the balance between my work and home life
Intuit introduced virtual mental health and nutrition workshops including a 1:1 with a nutritionist; virtual yoga and tai chi classes; virtual mindfulness; a kindness and compassion workshop; and a breathing workshop. Everyone was offered a free 30-minute confidential chat with Michelle Flynn, a certified international health coach and an integrative nutrition health coach.
