Reddit president resigned
Yishan Wong, now the former president of reddit, filed for the rest a week ago. In the 3 years that he headed the company, the number of reddit users has grown from 35 million to 174 million. He is also responsible for the decision to close all reddit offices and relocate workers to San Francisco. Interestingly, the reason for his resignation was a disagreement with the board of directors in search of a new reddit building.
Ellen Pao, who had previously served as senior vice president of strategic partnerships, was appointed interim president . Just under its control mobile development reddit, which are actively developing in this year .
Dan McComas (Dan McComas, by the way, he is also my boss), who is the founder of redditgifts, now holds the position of senior vice president of product development. In addition to his main position, Dan will serve as interim vice president of IT and development (vice president of engineering). By the way, reddit begins the search for a candidate for this position (vice president of engineering).
Well, the most remarkable news of this whole restructuring is Alexis Ohanian, one of the founders of reddit , coming back to us, this time, as the executive chairman. After my brief conversation with him, I can say that he is a very interesting person with many interesting ideas and plans regarding reddit, and I am very glad that he will lead our company in the future.
As for changes within the company that were not publicly announced:
- reddit is moving from a flat organizational structure to a more hierarchical one, i.e. Now there will be teams, leaders, etc.
- the timing of the move to San Francisco has become more flexible, now there is no mandatory requirement to move before January, and you can later.
- The new office will be located in San Francisco itself, and not in the previously planned area of the San Francisco Bay Area.
