TechCrunch says Toni Schneider resigned and Matt Mullenweg removed Sue Decker and Ann Dunwoody after returning as CEO.
Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, has lost three directors days after its board voted to put CEO Matt Mullenweg on paid leave, TechCrunch reports, citing multiple sources. The outlet says Toni Schneider resigned, while Mullenweg removed Sue Decker and Ann Dunwoody. Automattic declined to discuss specific individuals but told TechCrunch that Mullenweg was back in charge after 33 hours and 20 minutes away. The company’s board page still listed all three directors when checked. Why the board initially put Mullenweg on leave remains unclear.
