Andy Byron, who has found himself at the center of a social media firestorm over a Coldplay concert video, was the CEO of a tech company named Astronomer. On July 19, the company announced that Byron has resigned in the wake of the scandal.

Multiple former employees said Mr. Byron would lash out against employees who disagreed with him, including threatening to fire them,” a resurfaced exposé claims.

Andy Byron, CEO of New York-based Astronomer, made headlines after a recent appearance at a Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

After Coldplay's Chris Martin made a joke about Astronomer CEO Andy Byron having an affair when he and a woman hid from a concert fan cam, the company launched a formal investigation into the matter.
