Square isn't public so I imagine that the private stakeholders either are OK with him taking the job or aren't able to stop him (if he owns enough stock).

Since many B2C IPO strategies seem to benefit from generating media buzz, I can imagine the keyword tie-in to Twitter only helps.

Also, the CFO is probably just as important if not more for getting the company ready for IPO.

I bet he steps out of Square or sells it. Square is much less likely to price an IPO than people think.
