One of his employees at Brickhouse, Yahoo’s San Francisco incubator, has moved abroad while being classified, for tax purposes, as “working at home.” There are a number of steps companies ought to take when employing a U.S. citizen living abroad, but Ismail apparently skipped them. Now, one of the employee’s coworkers has received a summons from the IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division, where are investigators are looking into a case of tax fraud. While any penalties Yahoo might pay are small in comparison to the Web giant’s bottom line, they’d certainly speak to the sloppy management that’s been given a pass at Yahoo for far too long.
