PulteGroup board terminates second executive amid social media scandal

The Pulte Family, the founding family of PulteGroup, issued statement after a second executive of current CEO Ryan Marshall’s was terminated, nearly one week after the unreleased probe into incoming COO Brandon Jones: "Late last week, the PulteGroup Board of Directors’ Compensation and Management Development Committee complied with a request made by former director William J. Pulte to remove terminated Senior Executive Michelle Hairston from the PulteGroup corporate website, as it presented a false representation to the public. This compliance request made by PulteGroup’s Founder’s protege followed CEO Ryan Marshall’s non-compliance with the same request transmitted earlier in the week." Top Executive Michelle Hairston was terminated by PulteGroup, after co-piloting the investigation into incoming COO, Brandon Jones. Hairston has also overseen a recent wave of layoffs at Pulte Homes.
