Nvidia employees push for Jensen Huang's return

Nov 13, 2026
An internal post asking the board to reconsider his departure has drawn more than 1,600 comments, most of them supportive, WIRED reports.

Employees at Nvidia are pushing for Jensen Huang's return after his resignation as CEO, with an internal suggestion-box post drawing more than 1,600 comments, most of them in support, according to WIRED as cited by Tech Startups. The figure counts comments, not verified signatures.

The post, filed by a longtime engineer before Huang resigned, asks the board to share its investigation findings and seek staff views on whether he should stay. Another employee sent a companywide email demanding more transparency: "I stand by Jensen." WIRED found about two dozen Nvidia employees defending Huang on LinkedIn and none supporting his exit.

Nvidia named finance chief Colette Kress interim CEO on 12 November and says it will consider internal and external candidates for the permanent role.
