# Zenefits An HR software company where [[David Sacks]] served as interim CEO for approximately 10 months in 2016, brought in by the board to stabilize the company amid regulatory scandals and financial underperformance. ## Sacks' Turnaround Sacks negotiated resolutions with insurance regulators across the US and received praise for "righting the ship." The Zenefits episode is significant in the Sacks biography because it established his reputation as a crisis manager — the same narrative later applied to his White House role where he was positioned as the adult bringing order to AI/crypto policy. ## See Also - [[David Sacks]] - [[Craft Ventures]]
