Intuit Israel
I ntuit was born out of innovation, in 1983,
when co-founder Scott Cook created a bet-
ter way to accomplish a common household
dilemma: balancing the family checkbook.
Fast forward 34 years, this spirit of innovation at
Intuit is stronger than ever. We are a customer-
focused, design-driven technology company. Our
flagship products – QuickBooks, TurboTax and
Mint – define our commitment to revolutionize
the way people manage their personal finances,
run small businesses and pay their employees.
Today, we are capitalizing on a world being
shaped by social, mobile and global trends. We
have redefined ourselves from a North Ameri-
can desktop software company, to a cloud-driven
product and platform company. We are evolving
for amobile world that enables the contributions
of others by creating network effects platforms
and enlisting developers to participate in add-
ing value to our products. We are leveraging
customer data to make our products easier to
use while delivering breakthrough benefits for
our customers.
Intuit has offices in eleven countries across five
continents. Fueled by a team of 7,900 employ-
ees, we are stretching our markets beyond our
traditional North American boundaries. We are
growing our presence in Europe, India, Australia
and South America, serving customers in over
180 countries.
We have improved the financial lives of more
than 45 million people, and our annual revenue
exceeds USD 4 billion. We are publicly traded
with the symbol INTU on the Nasdaq Stock Mar-
ket, and are regularly recognized as one of the
best places to work in our locations around the
world.
Intuit in Israel
Intuit is committed to growth and development
in Israel. The country is a hotbed of talent and
technology; a world leader in mobile, security
and machine learning innovations, precisely the
areas where we have the most interest.
In just a few years in Israel, Intuit has harnessed
a very strong foundation of talent and a suite of
technologies to help accelerate Intuit’s global
growth and transformation to a secure, cloud-
based company.
Intuit’s journey in Israel began in June 2014,
when wemerged with Check, amobile payments
app with over 10 million registered users. Then
in February 2015, we acquired the cloud security
startup, Porticor.
In 2016, Intuit continued to invest in talent. We
grew an additional 20% over the previous year,
to more than 100 employees at our site in Hod
HaSharon. We established the Intuit Israel Data
Sciences Team to help deliver new high-tech cus-
tomer benefits to Intuit’s ecosystem of products
and services. We also reaffirmed our commitment
to Israel by declaring the country as our chosen
location for Intuit’s next development center out-
side of North America.
“Our goal is to build a development center that is
a win-win for Intuit and Israel,” said Baat Enosh,
Head of Strategy and Operations at Intuit Israel.
“We both share deep appreciation for great tech
talent and innovation. Wonderful things will come
as we all work and learn from each other.”
As happens to be the case, there is already strong
evidence of what can be accomplished together.
Most recently, we have been able to enhance
one of Intuit’s flagship products with new bill
pay technology. Mint can now pull together data
from multiple sources into one actionable pic-
ture to solve a complete range of bill pay tasks.
Customers can manage and track their bills, and
make payments, without logging into multiple
accounts. This is a hugemilestone for Intuit. With
the help of our growing team in Israel, we have
successfully integrated new technologies into
Mint so that millions of customers will never miss
a bill.
A Great Place to Work
Our commitment to our employees has forged In-
tuit a reputation that goes well beyond our ability
to create industry-leading products. Intuit is rec-
ognized all over the world today as a best place
to workdue to our ongoing company-wide efforts
and investments in service to our employees.
In the U.S., you’ll find Intuit on Fortune’s Top 100
list, a position held, among the giants in tech, for
15 years! Intuit’s development center in India,
with over 1,000 employees, recently celebrated
a three-year reign in the Top 10 Great Places to
Work®. In other countries like Canada, the UK,
Australia and France, Intuit has collected similarly
impressive accolades.
Intuit’s commitment to its employees around the
world is exceptional. Creating an excellent place
to work is part of our daily cadence. Nowhere is
this more obvious today than at Intuit in Israel.
We are building a workplace of innovation in Is-
rael where all employees have the opportunity
and structure to bring their ideas to life. We are
maintaining Intuit’s Operating Values, the basis
fromwhich every employee feels welcomed, sup-
ported and encouraged to bring their whole self
to work. We are providing all employees world-
class resources, including an environment that
encourages collaboration, amenities that inspire
and recharge, and an industry-leading total re-
wards package.
“As the Intuit Israel team grows, it is hugely
important that we continue to make the right
moves on behalf of our employees,” said Micky
Csasznik-Shaked, Director of Development and
Site Manager for Intuit Israel. “I am so proud of
the talent we have here andwhat we’ve been able
to accomplish together in just a few short years. I
am evenmore excited for the future ahead as we
continue to prioritize our efforts in creating the
best possible experience for all our employees;
for those that are with us today, and for those
that will be with us tomorrow.”
