Mr. Wojski is Google's 16th employee and is known for episodes that he rented his parents' garage instead of an office to Google's founding members Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
Wojczyski joined Google in 1998 and became Google's first marketing manager in 1999. In 2003, he became the first product manager for Google AdSense. In 2006, he proposed the acquisition of YouTube, which was operated by former PayPal employee Chad Hurley and others, and succeeded in acquiring it for 1.65 billion dollars (about 190 billion yen at that time). He contributed to the development of YouTube and was appointed CEO of YouTube in 2014.
In 2015, we started offering YouTube's subscription service 'YouTube Red' and promoted the launch of various services such as YouTube Originals, YouTube Music, and YouTube Kids. In addition to operating with a focus on opening the platform and returning profits to creators, it also showed an attitude of emphasizing the neutrality of the platform, such as reforming to give Wikipedia links to content related to conspiracy theories. .
On February 16, 2023, Wojcicki will send a message to employees, stating that he will step down as CEO on this date, handing over his successor to YouTube chief product officer Neil Mohan, who has worked at Google for 15 years. I told him that I would support Mr. Mohan and the team for a while, and that I would play a role like an advisor to Google in the long term.
“I am very proud of all that we have achieved,” Wojcicki said. I've decided to start a new chapter focusing on health and the personal projects I'm passionate about.The thousands of people I've worked with and learned from, both internally and externally, have taken me on the adventure of a lifetime. I would like to thank Larry and Sergey for inviting me to join them.'
