Parker Conrad Steps Down as Zenefits CEO
This is one of the worst management announcements I have ever read. While on the one hand, I can appreciate the forward-looking nature of making the company better in the future and an acknowledgement of some of its shortcomings (which every company has).<p>But the worst crime of all is announcing Conrad's resignation and providing zero credit, thanks, or goodwill towards him for being the birther of the company which wouldn't exist in the first place if not for him. Even if he had recently run into trouble setting the company straight or other problems, it's outright shameful to simply skip right over his contribution to making the company what it is and for being responsible for making it happen from day 1.<p>This crime wouldn't be so awful if it had come from someone who wasn't already a previous entrepreneur himself.<p>This is pretty sad... Parker probably would have gotten a nicer goodbye announcement had he died.
