Zoom Video Communications has hired former Microsoft executive Russell Dicker as its new Chief Product Officer. Dicker will lead Zoom's global product organization and roadmap, with a focus on integrating AI and machine learning across the platform to simplify how work gets done.
At Microsoft, Dicker was a Corporate Vice President (CVP) for Teams Product and Data. This seems very bullish for ZM, as you don't leave a VP role at a $3T company, the leader in this space, for a "meeting app." If he thought Zoom was a "sinking ship," he wouldn't have signed a deal that likely requires him to stay for 4 years for his RSUs to fully vest.

Lol, getting a Microsoft exec to help with AI – could only be worse if it was an Apple exec
