Several employees have been interviewed in connection with the
investigation by Facebook-parent Meta, the WSJ reported, adding
that the probe has been underway since at least last fall.
Meta and Sandberg did not immediately respond to Reuters'
requests for comment.
Among the activities being scrutinized is the work of Meta
employees to support Sandberg's foundation, Lean In, and towards
writing and promotion of her second book, "Option B: Facing
Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy", the report
added.
Earlier in June, Sandberg, whose close partnership with Chief
Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg powered the growth of the
world's biggest social network, announced her departure from the
company after 14 years.
Chief Growth Officer Javier Olivan is set to take over as chief
operating officer although Zuckerberg said he did not plan to
replace Sandberg's role directly within the company's existing
structure.
Sandberg said that she will continue to serve on Meta's board
after leaving the company in the fall.
