More High-Level Housecleaning At Yahoo; Plus, Wireless Exec Leaves Google

Dec 14, 2007 at 9:36am ET by Greg Sterling

AllThingsD’s Kara Swisher reports on two high level executive departures from Yahoo and about purges in the VP-heavy ranks at the company: “Next to go are VP of Media Engineering Bharath Kadaba and the higher profile Rachel Glaser, a senior vice president of operations finance.” The piece speculates that more high-level layoffs can be expected at Yahoo.

Meanwhile, over at Google, wireless executive Chris Sacca has announced he’s leaving the company to become an angel investor. Sacca has been a key figure in Google’s plan to bid in the forthcoming 700MHz spectrum auction.
