Oh man, how disappointing. Mailchimp was the perfect model of modern corporate responsibility to me. Growth at their own pace, not giving in to over leveraging via investors, and a solid product with good customer service. I’ve been using it for a while in service of some volunteer duties for an organization I’m a member of. Intuit is in many ways the opposite of that and exemplary of everything that’s wrong with corporate America.
I won’t even bother wishing Mailchimp remains steady and solid. It won’t. Six months sounds about right, maybe a year tops. I feel pretty confident Intuit will trash it in some as yet to be determined way.
