Total Rewards: Benefits, Compensation and Other Perks

We offer competitive salaries to attract, retain and motivate high-performing employees. We also believe in rewarding excellence in the performance of individual employees. Our merit-based system ties salary increases and promotion opportunities to the results you deliver.

We believe that employees deserve rewards for exceptional performance, so we offer bonus and incentive programs at all levels of the organization. They include sales commissions, support and customer service incentives and other cash incentive programs.

To show our thanks for a job well done, we recognize our employees with cash and non-cash awards. In addition, we celebrate employees' milestone employment anniversaries with service awards.

Intuit's 401(k) plan lets employees accumulate savings on a tax-deferred basis. Through payroll deductions, employees can direct up to 20% of pretax earnings (up to an IRS annual maximum) into the Fidelity savings plan. Intuit matches a generous portion of the employee's contribution amount - 150% of the 1st $1,000 contributed, PLUS 75% of the next 6% of pay, providing you contribute a minimum of 6%.

Employees ages 50 and older may also contribute additional catch-up contributions, subject to IRS maximums. Catch-up contributions are not eligible for the company match. Employees have 18 investment options, including Fidelity Brokerage Link® plus Fidelity's lifestyle Freedom Funds. They may enroll, increase, decrease, change investment funds, transfer funds or discontinue contributions at any time.

Intuit offers eligible employees the opportunity to participate in its Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Employees can buy Intuit common stock at 85 percent of market value. Purchase periods run for three months, four times a year. Open enrollment is held during February, May, August and November, and employees can enroll and direct up to 10 percent of taxable income (including commissions) into the plan via payroll deductions.

Employees receive a mixture of stock units and stock options. A stock unit is equal to one share of Intuit stock. Once a stock unit vests, it converts to one share of Intuit stock and is provided to you with no purchase necessary. Your stock unit grant is 50% vested after two years and 100% vested after three years.

Intuit gives you the opportunity to share in the company's success by offering stock options (the right to buy stock in the company at a specified price). Options are offered to all regular employees working 20 hours or more per week and vest over three years.

Employees can choose from several options, including 2 Consumer Directed plans, HMO type plans, or Preferred Provider options offered by leading health care organizations, all with comprehensive networks.
