Sonos Inc. Chief Executive Officer Patrick Spence is leaving after eight years in the job, a move that follows a botched app revamp that upset customers and stymied growth.
The audio technology company named Tom Conrad, a board member and former executive at Snap Inc. and the Pandora music streaming service, as interim CEO effective Monday and said the company has hired a firm to find a new leader. Sonos said the move isn’t related to its first-quarter financial results, which will be announced in February.
