Kevin Systrom didn’t leave Facebook Inc on the best of terms. But today, the co-founder of Instagram says he has an "amicable” relationship with Mark Zuckerberg.
Systrom described his interactions with the Facebook chief executive officer in an interview Friday on Bloomberg Television. After Facebook bought Instagram in 2012, the two men were often at odds internally about how much autonomy, and how many resources, Instagram should have, according to a new book by Bloomberg reporter Sarah Frier. It was a tug-of-war that eventually led Systrom to leave unexpectedly in late 2018.
