Eric Schmidt Steps Down from Alphabet’s Board of Directors
This is of course extremely subjective, and I have no knowledge of what Google was and is on the inside except for a short internship almost 10 years ago: I somehow always felt that Google with Eric Schmidt as a CEO was a much different Google than later on. Under Eric Schmidt, Google seemed like this extremely innovative company with the brightest minds in the industry. Afterwards, it seemed to instead grow into just another corporation.<p>Though maybe that&#x27;s just what growth does in general.<p>EDIT: I singled out Larry Page before, but that&#x27;s a bit skewed, given that he founded Google and was its CEO for the first few years.
