Report: Eric Schmidt, Who Led Google to Dominance, Has Left Company

SAN FRANCISCO (CNET) — Eric Schmidt, who drove Google’s transformation from Silicon Valley start-up to global titan, is no longer an adviser to the search giant and its parent Alphabet, marking another milestone in recent personnel shake-ups that’ve seen the company’s old guard bow out.
Schmidt, tapped as Google’s CEO in 2001, left his role as a technical advisor in February, according to a person familiar with the situation. His exit ends a 19-year tenure at Google, where he was brought in to be the “adult supervision” to Google’s young founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Schmidt’s departure comes three years after Schmidt said he was stepping down as executive chairman and would no longer serve in an operational role.
Representatives for Schmidt and Google declined to comment.
