The Departed: Google CIO to Join EMI Music; 300 Layoffs Announced
Date: 04-04-2008
Google’s CIO, Douglas Merrill, has resigned from his post to join EMI Music as president of digital business, marking the second high-profile departure from Google in the last month. Merrill had joined Google in 2003, after stints at Charles Schwab, Price Waterhouse, and the Rand Corp. In a statement, Merrill said, “I have two passions. One is creating platforms and tools that make it easier for consumers to achieve their goals. The other is music. This exciting new role at EMI is a unique opportunity for me to be able to put those two passions to work together.” On another front, Google said that it is cutting about 300 jobs from DoubleClick, its recently acquired firm, marking the biggest purge in the company’s history. The company will also sell Performics, a DoubleClick unit, due to a conflict of interests with the service related to search results.
