Pinterest General Counsel and Google Alumna Set to Step Down
“Pinterest Inc., the social scrapbooking platform that has been a possible acquisition target, is losing its general counsel Oct. 1, the company disclosed in a securities filing. Christine Flores will assist Pinterest in the orderly transition of her duties as the company initiates a search to find her,” reports Brian Baxter in Bloomberg Law.
“Pinterest hired her from Google to be its legal chief in 2017. She had joined Alphabet Inc.’s Google in 2007 and spent the next decade there, rising to the level of vice president of legal before being recruited by San Francisco-based Pinterest. Flores is set to exit Pinterest roughly a year to the month that PayPal Holdings Inc. said.”
