The thesis

Why this org is unusual

Product general managers, not a COO, form the core of Intuit’s operating spine.

The CEO directly oversees three large P&L-owning GMs—Consumer, Small Business, and Mid‑Market—alongside functional chiefs in finance, technology, data/AI, people, legal, and marketing.

  • No COO role
  • Three EVP-level product GMs
  • Dedicated C-suite Chief Data Officer
