Longtime executive Sheryl Sandberg is stepping down from Meta's board of directors after more than a decade, marking the end of an era. Sandberg, widely regarded as Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg's right-hand woman, played a pivotal role in the company's growth and success. Her departure comes at a time when Meta, formerly known as Facebook, is facing scrutiny and criticism on multiple fronts.
Sandberg joined Facebook in 2008 as the Chief Operating Officer (COO). During her tenure, she was instrumental in driving the company's expansion and revenue growth. As Zuckerberg's second-in-command, Sandberg was credited with helping to transform Facebook from a startup into a global social media giant.
