Financial software company Intuit (INTU) is looking to be the latest to trim its workforce. In an internal email circulated among employees, CEO Sasan Goodarzi has reportedly said that the move to shed about 3,000 jobs in the company is being done to operate more effectively and focus on assimilating AI across its products and services.
To put it simply, AI may do the jobs of these people, and the company will save costs. Consequently, the shares should have reacted positively, right? Wrong. INTU stock ended 4% lower in yesterday's trading session.
