Vlad Tenev
Tenev’s keen product instincts created Robinhood, but insiders say his reliance on gut feeling and distractibility hinder his effectiveness as CEO now.
Sources describe Tenev as a "role-playing CEO" who fosters a harsh, "soul-crushing" environment and lacks the emotional intelligence to attract and keep top talent.
Despite guiding Robinhood to profitability, insiders question Tenev’s ability and commitment for future growth, recommending he move to Executive Chairman.
