Yahoo Inc chief operating officer Henrique de Castro, the
high-profile recruit Chief Executive Officer Marissa Mayer poached from
Google Inc shortly after she took the helm, will leave on Thursday Jan 16,2014 after
about a year on the job.
Yahoo did not give a
reason for his departure in a Wednesday filing, but in an unusually
blunt memo to Yahoo staff obtained by the Recode technology blog Mayer
said she had fired him.
"During my own
reflection, I made the difficult decision that our COO, Henrique de
Castro, should leave the company," Marissa Mayer wrote in the memo.
