Employee development at Intuitive commences from the first day and includes comprehensive onboarding programs that teach about our business, our culture, and the skills needed to successfully perform at Intuitive. Subsequently, employees have access to a variety of online learning courses, as well as classroom and cohort-based programs.

For people leaders, we provide a 12-month, blended learning curriculum, called the Manager Acceleration Program (“MAP”). MAP is delivered globally and aims to teach our people leaders what it takes to successfully lead and manage at Intuitive. The program covers key leadership expectations as well as fundamental leadership skills. Additional virtual, instructor-led workshops provide timely classes aimed at assisting leaders with important employee processes, such as performance and compensation conversations.

Furthermore, our talent development initiatives include various team effectiveness assessments and solutions tailored to meet the needs of our growing global teams. These solutions range from cross-cultural dexterity programs to assessing and leveraging individual and team strengths. We gather feedback from our teams annually through our Employee Experience survey, holding leaders accountable for taking action based on the feedback received. In 2024, Intuitive achieved a 92% employee engagement score, signaling a strong employee commitment to our mission and the work we do each day.

Community Programs

We believe that building connections between our employees, their families, and our communities creates a more meaningful, fulfilling, and enjoyable workplace. Through our engagement programs, our employees can pursue their interests and hobbies, connect to volunteering and giving opportunities, and enjoy unique recreational experiences with family members.
