Leadership that signed off on it still there though.
In fact this NY Times article suggests long time head of software at Apple is also on the short list of candidates.
Anecdotally every tech company I have worked for run by a CEO with real world skills; like hardware engineering or in one case, a former surgeon; were great to work at.
Whenever my employer has leadership that only relates to the world entirely through abstraction; like MBAs, software engineers; those companies crashed and burned.
