Embroiled in a federal corruption scandal, FirstEnergy Corp. continued to clean house this week with the firing of SVP and Chief Legal Officer Robert Reffner and VP, General Counsel, and Chief Ethics Officer Ebony Yeboah-Amankwah.
The moves, effective Sunday and disclosed in a regulatory filing Monday, follow the appointment of Steven Strah as the company’s active CEO in late October. An independent review committee under the board of directors terminated former CEO Charles Jones for violations of the company’s policies and code of conduct.
