Bloomberg\u2019s<\/em> Mark Gurman is reporting that Johny Srouji, senior vice president of hardware technologies, told Tim Cook he is \u201cseriously considering\u201d leaving Apple<\/a> for another company in the near future. It was reported in October that Srouji was \u201cevaluating his future at the tech giant<\/a>.\u201d While nothing is confirmed, it seems the executive is leaning towards not having a future at Cupertino.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n If Srouji leaves, he would be just the latest in a string of high-profile shakeups in the company\u2019s C-suite. COO Jeff Williams announced his retirement<\/a> in July, which led to some shifting of roles. But things have only accelerated in December, with AI chief John Giannandrea stepping down<\/a>, policy lead Lisa Jackson and general counsel Kate Adams announcing plans to retire<\/a>, and UI design lead Alan Dye departing for Meta<\/a>, all in the last few days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Apple has struggled somewhat<\/a> to find its footing<\/a> as the industry further embraces AI. Now Tim Cook is tasked with trying to stem the bleeding, while being subject to rumors<\/a> of his own departure. Gurman, who is usually reliable, has said those rumors are premature<\/a>, but it still adds to the uncertainty surrounding what is typically one of the more stable companies in Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
