The company's mission is "powering prosperity around the world." To accomplish its mission, Intuit needs to attract top talent, the majority of whom have strong technical skills.

The company also has been named a "Best Workplace for Diversity" and a "Best Workplace for Women." In fiscal year 2017, Intuit's revenue was $5.2 billion. The employee culture is one of innovation, action, and passion about the work that employees perform. The company believes strongly in corporate social responsibility. With each Intuit Prosperity Bundle of TurboTax and QuickBooks purchased, the company donates $25 to a Kiva entrepreneur.
