'Sheryl will most definitely not be 行方不明になるd, she was 広範囲にわたって loathed': What Facebook staff really think of Sheryl Sandberg as the most powerful 女性（の） (n)役員／(a)執行力のある in Silicon Valley 出口s after 16 years - is a White House run next?

• e-mail

As they 長，率いるd off に向かって doubtless glittering and lucrative careers, students at Harvard 商売／仕事 School got one more tip from the 基本方針 （衆議院の）議長 at their 卒業 儀式 in May 2012.

Sheryl Sandberg, the most powerful 女性（の） (n)役員／(a)執行力のある in Silicon Valley, told the women の中で them that it was not only perfectly 罰金 for them to cry at work but it could even help them to 後継する.

‘I’ve cried at work. I’ve told people I’ve cried at work,’ she said. ‘I don’t believe we have a professional self from Mondays through Fridays and a real self for the 残り／休憩（する） of the time.

‘I try to be myself. Honest about my strengths and 証拠不十分s, and I encourage others to do the same. It’s all professional and it is all personal, all at the very same time.’

It was classic Sandberg: touchy-feely, woke waffle and there was plenty more to come from her in the years to come as 長，指導者 Operating Officer (COO) of Facebook, now Meta, from 2008 to 2022, when she played a 批判的な 役割 in making the social マスコミ 巨大（な） as one of the most profitable ? but also despised ? companies in the world.

Sheryl Sandberg, the most powerful 女性（の） (n)役員／(a)執行力のある in Silicon Valley, 発表するd last month that she is finally ending her leadership of Meta and stepping 負かす／撃墜する from its board of directors

Sandberg's boss 示す Zuckerberg thanked her for her ‘驚くべき／特命の／臨時の 出資／貢献s’ after she took the reins of a social 網状組織 he’d started in his student dorm at Harvard and transformed it into a multi-billion dollar 数字表示式の advertising empire

The former Google (n)役員／(a)執行力のある was 38 and Zuckerberg only 23 when he 雇うd her in 2008 to monetise the 速く growing number of people who had joined Facebook

So it’s ありそうもない there was much workplace weeping at the 告示 by the 54-year-old 億万長者 when she 発表するd last month she is finally ending her leadership of Meta and stepping 負かす／撃墜する from its board of directors.

‘With a heart filled with 感謝 and a mind filled with memories, I let the Meta board know that I will not stand for re-選挙 this May,’ she wrote in a typically 噴出するing Facebook 地位，任命する. ‘After I left my 役割 as COO, I remained on the board to help 確実にする a successful 移行.’

Sandberg, who stepped 負かす／撃墜する as COO under two years ago but kept the seat on the board she’d had for 12 years, said she will continue to serve the company as an 助言者, 追加するing: ‘This feels like the 権利 time to step away.’

Her boss, 示す Zuckerberg, thanked her for her ‘驚くべき／特命の／臨時の 出資／貢献s’ after she took the reins of a social 網状組織 he’d started in his student dorm at Harvard and transformed it into a multi-billion dollar 数字表示式の advertising empire.

Last month’s 告示 代表するs the final 厳しいing of Meta’s formal 関係 with an (n)役員／(a)執行力のある once dubbed the ‘adult in the room’ at the £745billion company and considered so 批判的な to its success that losing her would jeopardise 投資家s’ money.

The former Google (n)役員／(a)執行力のある was 38 and Zuckerberg only 23 when he 雇うd her in 2008 to monetise the 速く growing numbe r of people who had joined Facebook.

They met at a 2007 Christmas party thrown by a Silicon Valley 実業家 and 攻撃する，衝突する it off すぐに. Zuckerberg coming 一連の会議、交渉／完成する for dinner and 激しい conversations at her house twice a week - staying so long she had to kick him out at midnight. It was like they were ‘dating’, said Sandberg’s late husband, Dave Goldberg.

At Facebook, she had a 評判 for ruthless if priggish efficiency, によれば a 2020 調書をとる／予約する on the company する権利を与えるd Facebook: The Inside Story. ‘It was like Wendy パラシュート（で降下する）ing on to the island of Lost Boys,’ said author Stephen 徴収する, in a 言及／関連 to the sensible girl in Peter Pan who takes 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 of three children who were lost when they fell out of their prams.

Zuckerberg is now 概算の to be the world’s sixth-richest person with an 概算の £105billion personal fortune. Sandberg is 価値（がある） £1.5billion, while longtime Facebook 株主s have also done very nicely.

But their 濃縮すること （機の）カム at a 激しい price for the 残り／休憩（する） of us. Even by the 疑わしい 倫理的な 基準s of Silicon Valley, Facebook earned a 評判 for 冷笑的な ruthlessness and 有毒な greed.

Endlessly putting money before morals, on Sandberg’s watch Meta was （刑事）被告 of turning a blind 注目する，もくろむ on its online 壇・綱領・公約s to hate speech, 偽の news, Kremlin 干渉 and even human trafficking, not to について言及する 証拠 that it was 害（を与える）ing the mental health of children.

On Sandberg’s watch Meta was （刑事）被告 of turning a blind 注目する，もくろむ on its online 壇・綱領・公約s to hate speech, 偽の news, Kremlin 干渉 and even human trafficking, not to について言及する 証拠 that it was 害（を与える）ing the mental health of children

Zuckerberg is now 概算の to be the world’s sixth-richest person with an 概算の £105billion personal fortune - Sandberg is 価値（がある） £1.5billion

In 2013, Sandberg published her first 調書をとる／予約する, Lean In: Women, Work And The Will To Lead, in which she argued that, far from having to make 妥協s, working women could have it all ? if only they were a bit more like her

一方／合間, the money rolled in, and the company was transformed into a 法人組織の／企業の behemoth that in 2022 brought in almost $117billion (£93billion) in 歳入.

Given that the robotic, dead-注目する，もくろむd Zuckerberg was everyone’s idea of a 実業家 who would sacrifice almost anything for the sake of the 底（に届く） line, Sandberg 供給するd a softer, more human public 直面する for Facebook.

It was she rather than the man dubbed the ‘注目する，もくろむ of Sauron’, after the Lord of the （犯罪の）一味s villain, who 代表するd the company at repeated 審理，公聴会s in US 議会 into Facebook’s behaviour.

She certainly had her 職業 削減（する） out as the スキャンダルs piled up: the company 許すd the personal （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） of 87million Facebook 使用者s to be 収穫d without their 許可 by a British political 協議するing 会社／堅い in the Cambridge Analytical data スキャンダル; it was （刑事）被告 of failing to 妨げる Facebook 存在 used by both the Kremlin to 影響（力） the 2016 大統領の 選挙 and the plotters behind the January 6 attack on the US （ワシントンの）連邦議会議事堂; and ? in what many considered was Sandberg’s worst offence given her （人命などを）奪う，主張するs to be a feminist ? it 固執するd in 許すing its picture-株ing 壇・綱領・公約 Instagram to 的 children にもかかわらず knowing it was 害（を与える）ing their mental health.

Now, some believe she is neatly jumping ship just as Meta 直面するs 潜在的に 高度に-損失ing 訴訟s from 33 US 明言する／公表するs that 主張する the tech 巨大（な） has deliberately engineered its social マスコミ 壇・綱領・公約s Instagram and Facebook to be 中毒の to children and 十代の少年少女s.

The 訴訟s, 明らかにする／漏らすd in November, （人命などを）奪う，主張する that Meta was 動機づけるd to keep children 麻薬中毒の ーするために 上げる 利益（をあげる）s, and 主張する that it routinely collects data on children under 13 without their parents’ 同意, in 違反 of 連邦の 法律.

Meta has 答える／応じるd to the 訴訟s by 主張するing it is 決定するd to 供給する teens with ‘安全な, 肯定的な experiences online, and have already introduced over 30 道具s to support teens and their families’.

The bombshell 主張s 茎・取り除く from the 2021 決定／判定勝ち（する） by Meta whistleblower and ex-製品 経営者／支配人 フランs Haugen to 株 文書s from 内部の company 研究 示すing that Instagram より悪くするs suicidal thoughts and eating disorders for some teenage girls.

One of the 熟考する／考慮するs produced by Haugen 設立する that 13.5 per cent of UK teenage girls said their suicidal thoughts became more たびたび（訪れる） after joining Instagram. Facebook 反対するd by 説 it had taken steps to 修正する the failings identified by Haugen.

Perhaps it’s 理解できる that Sandberg ? who only last year had the cheek to lambast a modern culture that ‘signals to girls that how they look is more important than what they’re 有能な of doing’ ? doesn’t want to hang around at a company about to be 公然と 運ぶ／漁獲高d over the coals for its own 役割 in fuelling misogyny.

Sandberg?married Tom Bernthal in August and has said she will raise his three children as her own

Tom is Sandberg's third husband. They have also moved into women’s football by in vesting in a 国家の league team in the San Francisco Bay Area

産業 観察者／傍聴者s say Sandberg’s 出発 from Meta also 代表するs a 承認 that the company has changed 劇的な since she 発表するd her 出発 as 長，指導者 operating officer in June 2022. at a time when the company was in trouble, laying off many staff as its 歳入 dwindled.

Since then, Zuckerberg has 解雇（する）d tens of thousands more and moved away from Sandberg’s 商売／仕事 戦略. After a horrendously misjudged 投資 in 事実上の reality, the いわゆる ‘Metaverse’ that 本人自身で cost Zuckerberg nearly £37billion, he is now betting the farm on 人工的な 知能 (AI).

And as Meta 猛烈に tries to put the bad old days behind it, Sandberg’s continued 関係 to the company cannot have been 完全に helpful. People の近くに to her have said she believes she wouldn’t have been criticised so savagely during her time at Facebook if she’d been a man, but critics 反対する that it’s been her own fault for 存在 so smug.

‘Sheryl will most definitely not be 行方不明になるd, she was 広範囲にわたって loathed,’ a Facebook insider told the Mail. ‘Yes, she was undoubtedly very good at monetising the company but just look at the cost. ‘They [Sandberg and Zuckerberg] were 警告するd about so many 欠陥s here but they weren’t 利益／興味d. They’re still not really 利益／興味d.’

An ex-Facebook 労働者 （刑事）被告 her of ‘驚くべき／特命の／臨時の levels of hubris’, 追加するing: ‘People always used to 述べる her as so “impressive”. She 明確に thought so too and that 証明するd 悲惨な.’

The source pointed to 報告（する）／憶測s that 現れるd soon after she 辞職するd as COO in 2022 that she was 存在 調査／捜査するd internally over her use of company staff and 資源s on her personal 事業／計画（する）s such as her philanthropic 創立／基礎, her next 調書をとる／予約する, and even her wedding.

Both Meta and Sandberg 否定するd that the 内部の 調査 into her behaviour had anything to do with her 決定／判定勝ち（する） to leave the company.

There’d been other instances of imperious, self-important behaviour such as when she would take a ten-strong 側近 when she visited Washington and, in the office, surrounded herself with a group of obsequious cronies known inside Meta as ‘FOSS’ ? Friends Of Sheryl Sandberg.

In his 調書をとる／予約する, Steven 徴収する portrayed 行方不明になる Sandberg as an image-obsessed tyrant who 叫び声をあげるd at underlings but naively believed Facebook was 完全に a 軍隊 for good.

So what’s next for the ambitious (n)役員／(a)執行力のある whose 支持する／優勝者ing of women’s empowerment in the workplace has certainly fallen on deaf ears in her own 産業? Incidentally, Silicon Valley ? which has long been a bastion of macho ‘bro’ culture ? has now lost all of the women who once 占領するd 最高の，を越す positions.

There is 新たにするd 憶測 that Sandberg, a committed 民主党員 who 以前 was 長，指導者 of staff to 財務省 長官 Lawrence Summers in the Clinton 行政, might be 解放する／自由なing herself up to go into US politics.

After stepping 負かす／撃墜する as Meta’s COO, Sandberg 増加するd her political activity. に引き続いて the 最高裁判所’s 決定／判定勝ち（する） in 2022 to overturn 魚の卵 v. Wade, the 目印 判決，裁定 that 許すd women across the US to have abortions, she 発表するd a $3million (£2.4million) 寄付 to the American Civil Liberties Union to fight abortion 制限s in 保守的な 明言する／公表するs.

‘This is a really important moment for me to be able to do more with my philanthropy, with my 創立／基礎,’ she said.

Last year Sandberg 発表するd she was 開始する，打ち上げるing a leadership programme for girls through her charitable 創立／基礎 to 答える／応じる to what she calls ‘stubborn gender inequities’.

She and her third and 現在の husband Tom Bernthal, a market ing 顧問, have even moved into women’s football by 投資するing in a new 国家の league team in the San Francisco Bay Area that will play its 就任の season this year.

Most recently, Sandberg ? who is ユダヤ人の ? organised an event at the 国際連合 in New York in which she spoke out against the 性の 暴力／激しさ against women that occurred during the October 7 Hamas attack on イスラエル.

Politics seems an 完全に 論理（学）の next step for someone who enjoys lecturing other people how to live their lives and who could never be （刑事）被告 of 存在 backward in coming 今後.

In 2013, she published her first 調書をとる／予約する, Lean In: Women, Work And The Will To Lead, in which she argued that, far from having to make 妥協s, working women could have it all ? if only they were a bit more like her.

Put your career first, ‘lean in’ to your 職業, and the 残り／休憩（する） of your life will sort itself out, she argued.

While she 述べるd it as a ‘sort of feminist manifesto’, many women were furious and lambasted 行方不明になる Sandberg ? a woman who could afford an army of childminders and assistants ? as patronising and elitist.

One 目だつ US columnist went so far as to 解任する her as a ‘PowerPoint Pied Piper in Prada ankle boots’ but, on the 支援する of the 調書をとる／予約する, she 開始する，打ち上げるd a （選挙などの）運動をする ? 支援するd by Victoria Beckham and Beyonce ? to discourage the word ‘bossy’ on the grounds it puts 負かす／撃墜する girls and discourages them from 存在 ambitious.

And Sandberg is certainly ambitious. Her political aspirations are said to 延長する to a seat in the US 上院 and even a White House run.

She has also said that, after struggling to juggle work and home life at Facebook, she wants to spend more time with her family. She has two children from her second marriage to Dave Goldberg, who died in 2015 after 攻撃する，衝突する ting his 長，率いる after 落ちるing off a treadmill at a holiday 郊外住宅 in Mexico.

She married Tom Bernthal in August and has said she will raise his three children as her own.

As we wait to see where Sheryl Sandberg ‘leans in’ next, it surely cannot have such destructive consequences for the world as her 商売／仕事 共同 with 示す Zuckerberg.
