'You can trust me when I say that everything is going to be okay,' Slack's CEO said in an internal message.
Two CEOs at Salesforce — Salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor and Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield — announced their departures within days of each other, a destabilizing exit for the company. Also included in Butterfield’s Monday departure announcement, according to an internal Slack message from Butterfield obtained by SFGATE, are chief product officer Tamar Yehoshua and senior vice president of marketing and communications Jonathan Prince.
“lt's been a long and wild run,” Butterfield said in the internal message. “I am not going off to do something entrepreneurial. Though it may sound hackneyed, I actually am going to spend more time with my family.”. In a brief statement to the Journal, he said that “now is the right time for me to step away” and return to his “entrepreneurial roots.” Taylor took the co-CEO position about a year ago, replacing Keith Block, who served an 18-month tenure as co-CEO before departing in 2020.
