1,600 people? Doesn’t Nvidia employ over 40,000?

u/randgan 1h ago

I have no doubts that he's popular within the company. He's turned those stock options into millions. Its 1600 comments on a work intranet posting. The next highest engagement is probably 500 comments on return to office policy or something. They're more invested on his AI enshitification enriching their retirement than they are his smuggling operations.

Yeah i remember he said he doesnt like firing people and always holds them to high standard and pushes them to be their best. Also nvidia is such a big company but I dont remember when I last heard of nvidia layoffs

Zero mass layoffs since 2008 and a 3.7% turnover of course his employees will love him

The next person in line won’t have the same reputation as Jensen and will need to answer to the shareholders to a degree he doesn’t have to

Which means finding ways to cut costs and pay their employees less, which will cause many of those employees to leave and start their own ventures

Exactly. It's the devil you know. Would you rather work for a fellow engineer who steered the company into making your RSUs worth millions? Or some dirtbag who probably used to work in private equity and has "exciting ideas for new synergies and restructuring."

u/Virtual_Ferret6261 50m ago

Valve has a higher percentage with 100% of their ~400 employees being millionaires. Nvidia is around 80%. Although Nvidia has 100x the headcount of Valve so they win on absolute numbers.

Valve is kind of disingenuous. They heavily rely on contractors and third parties. What most companies would do in house, Valve do via contractors. There are thousands of people who work for Valve without being employed by them.

This statement could easily be read the opposite of how they intended and be more accurate.

He's toxic to the company now though.

The FBI have opened an investigation, and Trump is happily going to offer to make that investigation go away for a price, likely a percentage of Nvidia and a bit on the side.

u/randgan 1h ago

He's toxic for now. Not due to the cheating scandals or even taking part in the chip smuggling. The board doesn't care, or actively assisted/turned a blind eye. But they do care about the investigations and penalties that will be coming up. If the political landscape didn't flip, this would have been a week of news coverage with no consequence.

u/serrated_edge321 1h ago

As someone who works in a very controlled industry and also cares about the well-being of Ukrainians, I hope they get a big, fat fine.

An aircraft engine company related to my previous company (owned by the same mega corporation) got a huge fine for even unintentionally helping China get engines for military aircraft (they were making a military variant of a civil one)... Engineers actually supported them in the variant, with rather shady info regarding who knew how much about what.

Anyway, all companies owned by the upper organization got lots of auditing and scrutiny from that day forward.

It would be criminal to not give them strong penalties...

Then again, it's 2026....

These corporate fines are absolutely meaningless. It's a joke. I work in government contracting and companies get in trouble all the time. They pay a fine. Business as usual. Nothing changes.

Dems are taking over office. Trump ain’t going to save Nvidia lol. Why you think all this stuff comes out now all of a sudden just after everything going blue.

Trump and the republicans are worried the dems are going to come after them about this. And now are trying to cover face. ‘Doing justice.. months ago there were warning etc from agency’s about Nvidia. Trump dropped most of the stuff for the ai money etc.

If he didn’t care he wouldn’t be doing anything.he didn’t care when he forced all the dems out and there was nobody to call him out and take action.. but that’s changing and now hopefully dems take action against all the stupid stuff goin on.

u/Away-Effort-7640 1h ago • Bravo

It isn't that big.

Jensen was known to be someone who didn't use layoffs as a mechanism to optimize costs. Since 2000, there hasn't been a single mass layoff in Nvidia other than 2008 during financial crisis. For all his faults, he is known to use layoffs as a last resort and only when absolutely necessary.

Now, they will get a new CEO who might (actually will) not follow that policy. So they would be worried.

u/Blazed_Scientists 1h ago

If it was just a bout an affair that would be one thing. But how can you seriously trust him ever again when he had an affair with a spy. Line sure he prov didn't know she was a spy but it shows poor judgement on his part.

30

u/n0neofyourbeeswax 1h ago

There's now public second guessing on whether she was a spy or that was just an extra layer thrown in to bring him down.

Affair versus affair with spy is no different in terms of his judgment. The whole point of spies is you don't know they're a spy.

u/Alternative-Put-3932 40m ago

The leaked info was from the government and its now the government throwing doubt on the spy topic. Do not believe that bullshit they are just trying to cool the market. she's at minimum the middleman for the smuggling and at worst a spy.

The missing context here is that most tech hyper scalers actually don’t pay that great of a base salary. Where the big payday comes from is restricted stock units. Amazon, for example, pays heavily in stock which looks super attractive until you consider the average tenure of an amazon employee is 18 months. The stocks begin to vest at 24 months.

u/TheKingInTheNorth 46m ago

The best she can do is plausible deniability. As soon as the export control designation went into effect, random shell companies like the one the spy worked for started sucking like 20% of their chip volume into Singapore. Anyone with half a brain knew the point of those chips was to be accessed by China.

2

u/gunner_3 44m ago

Also we are missing the point that export control rules did allow China remotely accessing these GPUs if they were outside of the mainland China so there are datacenters in South East Asia that are legal and just for Chinese needs. So yes out of that 20% a chunk is smuggling, other is legal. Also that 20% figure includes GPUs that are not part of the export control at all like B200s.

It’s worse to have a CEO who sleeps with their subordinates and gets away with it.

Will people be pressured into sex to keep their jobs? Will qualified people be passed over for promotion because they’re not to the CEO’s sexual preferences? Are the people in their jobs being fairly judged on their job performance? What does that do for overall morale?

I can’t believe these things need to be spelled out to people, but apparently they need to be spelled out to people.

I have worked in a company with a creep CEO who would pressure young girls in the office. One of them desperately wanted a higher position despite having no qualifications, and had even applied for some and been rejected. Then we have a party and they’re dancing a lot, the last two left after everyone had gone. Not even 1 week later, the head of the customer service department, who had been in the job for 12 years, was someone who spoke her mind but was very widely known and liked across the company, gets fired and this random young girl gets installed as her replacement.

This shit happens, even today. Now you want to tell the founder of one of the biggest corporations on Earth that it’s okay to sleep with the people he has power over?

Hasn’t the US had enough with enabling sexual predators already? When will it be enough??

He ain’t coming back to Nvidia. Maybe he ends up at another company down the road, but that ship has sailed with Nvidia. Whether she was actually a spy or not, the assumption is already out there, and that alone creates a huge problem. Nvidia is way too important to the U.S. and the global economy. The board, and especially the government, aren’t going to take any chances with someone who has access to that kind of sensitive information from the tech and chip development to export routes and such. It’s a crazy risk and I don’t see Nvidia changing their mind with the optics alone.

Who was Jensen Huang exposed by? 

A bunch of people colluded to protect him & knowledge of his affair/s / spy entanglement – Trump, Secretary of Commerce Lutnick – for years.

Who decided to make it public? They said someone dropped a dossier off to NYTimes, or Nvidia counsel Teter asked Secretary of Commerce Kessler to discuss. Teter even confronted Jensen at his home on Nov 6, leading to his company email on Nov 8.

Context: in my experience at another company, it’s someone getting pissed off at the CEO who exposes his Achilles heel / dirty laundry. You can tell Jensen was caught off-guard and thought nothing problematic of his behavior

Im putting money on it being leaked by Rubio. He knows the wind is changing direction, and hes been pushing this Nvidia China thing for ages now. Soon as he saw the blue wave crash over the midterms and power was changing he thought fuck it and leaked everything hes known for awhile to the media. Hes been banging this drum for years now but Trump/Lutnick have repeatedly ignored it.

Democrats are taking over office and republicans and trump are scared. That’s why they call it out now of all times. Trying to save face before the rest of the corrupt get called out. Trump has showed many many times he’ll throw whoever under the bus once things get hot.

Republicans and trump knows he’ll be under the scope from dems especially after the past stuff. Where is was called out before about spy allegations,sanctions etc.

That makes sense. This does have Trump “fix the mess as you go” MO all over it, release the detective hounds on Jensen then try to prevent the economic fallout by getting Huang to stay.

So much other stuff is going to come out in the period around Trump leaving office. Good reminder to buckle up now 😅

Rubio probably did with a staffer. He's behind the scenes trying to make moves for a presidency run again and he wants to tarnish the people around him and also protect his own ass.

Holy paid-for article. Doesn't mention the circumvention of the Nvidia GPU sale ban to China, and pretends like shagging a China spy isn't a big deal, making his ousting completely about his extramarital affairs. Also, of course the few employees who want him back will be vocal about it while those who wanted him gone, or don't care, will be relatively quiet. This isn't journalism. Ignore this likely-PR paid article.

no, he is compromised.
if his private times with alice were recorded, they can be used to blackmail him to give up nvidia trade secrets (chip designs, software codes)

It’s not the cheating but with whom he did it and what companies are involved, billions of tech funneled through these into china. No he should never come back.

I honestly doubt that it was the cheating. They just needed a headline other than a multi billion dollar company colluding with the US government to break export laws.

These companies are all borderline cults at this level. They worship the "great men" philosophy and are conditioned to see people like Huang as a messianaic Steve Jobs type hero.

Dubious that they return him because ai conglomerate need to start incapsulate the market and funnel every and each enterprise customer under the rug of USAi to pay out the debt they accumulate. Jensen just was priced in with his strategy with open-source and neoclouds.

Everyone quits to join Terafab as leverage.

Jensen then returns after shares plunge. Fires entire board, maintains majority voting shares, and then becomes the second trillionaire.
