Facebook <\/a> head of communications Caryn Marooney is leaving for greener pastures, she announced today, on Facebook of course. She joins the growing number of executives and high-level employees departing the company during and after what may be its toughest year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI spent a lot of time over the winter holiday reflecting, and with the New Year, and after 8 years at Facebook, I\u2019ve decided to step down as leader of the communications group,\u201d Marooney wrote. \u201cI\u2019ve decided it\u2019s time to get back to my roots: going deep in tech and product.\u201d<\/p>\n

She thanked CEO Mark Zuckerberg and COO Sheryl Sandberg, with whom she worked closely. The former commented to thank Marooney \u201cfor the dedication and brilliance you have brought to Facebook over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Certainly she saw Facebook during a period of intense growth and transition, though arguably the company\u2019s entire history has been marked by those traits. But 2011\u2019s Facebook was remarkably smaller and less complex \u2014 operationally, ethically, and legally \u2014 so to have gone from that middle stage to the present must certainly have been quite a ride.<\/p>\n

Marooney is just the latest in what seems like a constant of high-profile departures over the last year:<\/p>\n
