Can’t speak for her, obviously, but personally I tend to wait to make my exit once I know the role is not working out

If I were in her shoes, I would have known I was going to leave during the worst of his tantrums, but I would have timed my exit for a more graceful moment.

Dramatically bailing out during a storm would not be a good look for an exec who wants another key role somewhere else

If she were trying to time it, this timing seems weird. This is literally the day after Grok kept posting anti-semitism, praising Hitler, and calling itself MechaHitler. This might not be the least graceful moment for an exit, but there were so many more graceful exit times.

FTA this was announced last week to employees.

"Ms. Yaccarino had discussed her plans to leave with X employees earlier this week, before the incident with Grok"

The speed at which replies mentioning Groks Nazi freakout get downvoted here make me really question where things are headed..

All the race science phrenology bullshit is coming out of Silicon Valley. It's not a surprise to me that HN would be full of people "just reading the stats".

Another possibility is that she was fired.
