Sequoia partners reportedly blindsided when Roelof Botha joined SpaceX board

Sequoia Capital's recent changes, including the closure of its London office, merger of teams, and end of Scouts program, are seen as an attempt to undo the legacy of former leader Roelof Botha. The changes come after Botha joined the SpaceX board, reportedly without informing Sequoia's partners. The move is seen as a break between Botha and his former firm, with some partners feeling blindsided and others viewing it as an erasure of Sequoia's heritage.
