Sheryl Sandberg on Wednesday said she will be leaving her role as chief operating officer of Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc closing out her tenure helping lead one of the world’s most profitable and controversial companies.
In a post on her Facebook profile, Ms. Sandberg wrote that she will step down from the role that she has held for 14 years this fall, but will continue to serve as a member of Meta’s board. In a securities filing, Meta said she informed the company on Saturday of her intention to resign.
