Even shift leaders at McDonalds need to sign various workplace policies, including policies about relations with their direct reports. So yeah, this is not exactly a surprise or something unheard of.

Any such policy is illegal and wouldn't last in court. You can't contract away human rights.

Does Nvidia have such a policy? Unless laws have changed, this isn't an issue as far as the law is concerned.

(Googling - seems they may actually have this policy...)

From what I've heard: Nvidia's operations is heavily reliant on Jensen. He's embedded in everything. Early in the pandemic, I interviewed with them. The recruiter said that pretty much every engineer at the company will, at some point, be in a meeting that includes Jensen. I spoke to a friend who worked there and he confirmed it.

(Probably no longer true as they've grown a lot since then).
