Marco Boerries Exiting Yahoo

New Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz hasn’t even made public her plans for restructuring the company, but whatever they are, they’ll have to make do without Marco Boerries. In her AllThingsD column, Kara Swisher said that Boerries, who heads up Yahoo’s Connected Life business, is leaving the company.

In a post on Monday, Swisher discussed which executives would likely be gone with the restructuring; she included Boerries, who was a loyal supporter of ex-CEO Jerry Yang, on the list. Guess that’s a moot point now.

Boerries reportedly used the ever-popular “personal issues” as his reason for leaving in an e-mail he sent to some of his workers.
