Facebook Messenger Boss Stan Chudnovsky Announces Leaving Company In 2022

Stan Chudnovsky, the head of Meta's (formerly Facebook) Messenger has announced that he will quit at some point in the second quarter of 2022.

New Delhi: Stan Chudnovsky, the head of Meta's (formerly Facebook) Messenger has announced that he will quit at some point in the second quarter of 2022. The senior executive at Meta made the announcement in a Facebook post. As the social networking giant is moving towards metaverse, several top company executives have quit the company.

Chudnovsky's colleague Loredana Crisan will replace him at Facebook Messenger. Crisan joined the Messenger team in 2016 and previously led design at Indiegogo.

"I have a personal bit of news to share. I’ll be leaving Meta at some point in Q2 next year. I love this company and this team, and as a result, making this call turned out to be one of the hardest decisions in my life. But I’ve been working nonstop since I was 16, with about two-week breaks between my projects - always either starting companies, starting a venture fund (NFX), or running companies, merging companies, investing in companies, or working at companies," Chudnovsky wrote in a Facebook post late on Tuesday.

Chudnovsky mentioned he has no plans to retire, but that he was looking forward to taking a good, many months-long break, spending more time with friends and even more time with family, investing, helping companies, helping people, traveling, reading, exploring, and learning.

"I am so proud of amazing team that we’ve built here over the years. It’s the most talented, dedicated, hard-working, open, feedback-driven, result-oriented group of incredible humans I’ve had a privilege to work with," the top company executive added.

Last week, David Marcus, Meta's cryptocurrency head had announced he will leave the company at the end of the year. Fellow project founder Morgan Beller had left Meta in September 2020 to move on to venture capital. Kevin Weil, another one of the project founders, left in March to join Planet, a San Francisco-based company with a fleet of satellites that take photos of the earth once every day, providing users with imagery that demonstrates how the earth changes.
