Norfolk Southern CEO Suffers the Consequences of a Misconduct Probe
Roger W. Carr Reportedly Resigns After Internal Investigation
Roger W. Carr, chief executive officer at Norfolk Southern, is leaving his position following an internal probe. The news comes on the heels of several reports alleging misconduct.
Norfolk Southern has yet to officially comment on Carr's exit. However, a report from the Wall Street Journal states that the internal investigation found evidence of misconduct. Furthermore, the investigation revealed that Carr misused company funds and made inappropriate comments to employees.
Carr joined Norfolk Southern in 2015. During his tenure, the company faced a number of challenges, including a major derailment in Ohio. The incident sparked outrage and led to increased scrutiny of the company's safety record.
The news of Carr's resignation is likely to raise further questions about Norfolk Southern's corporate culture. The company has been criticized for its handling of the Ohio derailment, and the internal investigation into Carr's conduct may further damage its reputation.
It remains to be seen who will replace Carr as CEO of Norfolk Southern. The company's board of directors is currently conducting a search for a new leader.
