> “It’s not the kid’s fault,” McCarthy said, defending his flustered boss. McCarthy sometimes took over for Duplan during the weekly all-hands meetings on Fridays, correcting him and referring to him as “kid.”
Its a bad play to join any company whose founder and chief executive is at his first leadership post (first real job?).
- dylanjermiah 11y agoI'd be careful to generalise, Faceboook was Mark's first job.
- bsg75 11y agoWith what successes, either personal or for the company? A couple years at FB does not a leader make.
- dylanjermiah 11y agoBoth. It's been a decade now. Mark, and others, have built one of the most valuable technology companies of all time. In my option that's a great leader.

Multiple rounds of layoffs (and apparent mutiny), experienced management hires departing in days or hours, millions in investment resulting in what? An exit strategy?
