More than 1,600 comments have been posted on an internal Nvidia platform in support of former CEO Jensen Huang, with several employees urging the company’s board to reconsider his resignation and bring him back.
Huang’s sudden departure followed reports of multiple alleged extramarital relationships. He had led the US-based chipmaker since co-founding the company in 1993.
According to a report by WIRED, an internal post submitted by a longtime Nvidia engineer before Huang’s resignation urged the company’s board to consider employees’ opinions before making any decision about his future. The post has since attracted more than 1,600 comments, many calling for his reinstatement.
One anonymous employee wrote, “If you believe in the mission, bring back THE boss.” Another argued that Huang deserved a second chance, highlighting his contributions to the company’s growth.
Some employees have also questioned the circumstances surrounding his sudden departure. One staff member reportedly sent a companywide email demanding greater transparency from the board and expressing continued support for Huang.
Many employees had expected the board to complete its investigation before making any major leadership changes. However, Huang resigned while the inquiry was still underway, leaving several staff members seeking explanations.
Following his departure, Nvidia appointed Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress as interim CEO and named investor Harvey Jones as chairman of the board.
The developments have sparked internal debate over the company’s leadership transition and the future of the technology giant.
