CEO Sasan Goodarzi delivered the news in an internal memo the same day the TurboTax and QuickBooks maker released its Q3 FY2026 earnings, with cuts spanning seven countries and all four consumer brands: TurboTax, QuickBooks, Credit Karma and Mailchimp.\n\nGoodarzi insisted the reduction was about simplifying operations rather than artificial intelligence, saying it would let Intuit cut management layers, eliminate coordination-heavy roles and remove duplicative functions left over from the Credit Karma and TurboTax integration. The restructuring will trigger $300 million to $340 million in charges, mostly booked in the current quarter, and impacted workers will exit by July 31.\n\nThe move comes alongside fresh deals with Anthropic and OpenAI to embed generative AI deeper into Intuit products, fueling skepticism that the cuts are unrelated to AI transformation. Intuit becomes the latest large US tech employer to announce mass downsizing during the AI boom, following Meta, GM and others earlier this month."}}
