Nvidia staff comments back Huang’s return, WIRED reports
An internal suggestion post has drawn more than 1,600 comments, with most reportedly supporting the former chief executive. Employees are also seeking clarity on his departure.
An Nvidia suggestion-box post calling on the board to consider employee views on Jensen Huang’s leadership has attracted more than 1,600 comments, most reportedly supporting his return, according to WIRED’s review of internal correspondence.
A longtime engineer submitted the post before Huang resigned. It urged the board to share its inquiry findings and formally seek employees’ views on whether he should continue as chief executive. The post drew comments backing Huang after his departure.
One employee also sent a companywide email expressing support for Huang and calling for transparency about his exit. WIRED said it identified about two dozen Nvidia employees’ LinkedIn posts supporting him after his resignation, and none supporting the resignation.
The comments and posts do not establish the views of Nvidia’s workforce as a whole. WIRED reported that the engineer declined to comment, the email’s author could not be reached, and Nvidia and board chair Harvey Jones did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The board named chief financial officer Colette Kress interim chief executive and Jones chair. The supplied reporting does not establish why Huang left or what the board’s inquiry found.
