I agree, pretty bizarre for a public announcement.

#13It seems like the article link requires a FB account. Can anyone paste the contents or share a link that doesn't require a facebook account?
I think it depends on how many FB posts you've viewed already. It didn't require a login for me until I refreshed twice.

She’s one of the most powerful women in the world. Not self important just important.

Re: Sheryl Sandberg stepping down as Facebook COO
#16Today, I am sharing the news that after 14 years, I will be leaving Meta. When I first met Mark, I was not really looking for a new job – and I could have never predicted how meeting him would change my life. We were at a holiday party at Daniel L Rosensweig's house. I was introduced to Mark as I walked in the door, and we started talking about his vision for Facebook. I had tried The Facebook, as it was first called…

#17I think it's really deserving of praise that Sheryl managed to join Facebook in 2008, joining right as it was clear Facebook would become a behemoth. She then spent 14 years helping to steer a young Mark Zuckerberg through some of the most immoral, damaging and discrediting decisions a company can make. Now, at the absolutely peak of Facebook, where it's losing users, it's reputation is so bad it literally had to change it's name and "pivot", now she steps aside.

#18Whatever you think of FB politics (which I'm not sure how much influence she has), ops wise she has done an outstanding job at FB to make it run.

#19It's possible this announcement was intentionally timed against the media-consuming Depp/Heard trial verdict announcement in an attempt to bury the news. Meta stock went down a few points immediately after the announcement.
Within ~30 minutes of the verdict - I'd say that's likely. I wonder if there's any other bad news announcements happening right about now.

There's always something else in the news.
COO leaving isn't something that can be ignored. She'll still be leaving tomorrow.
