Because no one else can fill the shoes. The best that the next CEO can do is either:

a) make improvements on what exists, and thus effectively stagnate in a moving hardware industry, or

b) cut staff (which Nvidia has only done twice in its history: 1996 (near-bankruptcy), and around 2008 (360 / 6.5%), right in the middle of ironing out the Tesla architecture).

The moment their CFO took over, they already announced layoffs.

The CFO is almost never one that makes unique product decisions.

I don't like him or Nvidia but you can't deny he was the CEO while they achieved exraordinary things. He is just very successful no matter which way you put it.

I don't just mean making money successful like polymarket etc. but he was the head of a company that created multiple huge technical achievements in past decades. He made huge bets on multiple things and the bets actually worked in the end.

And they will very likely replace him with a bunch of accountants. It is not hard to understand why someone would want to have him as a leader instead of an accountant.

They're losing money. It's always money. Denting the company they work for or invest in is a surefire way to get the money-grubbers to raise their hands. These are the people who care more about their personal stake in Nvidia than they do Nvidia as a whole. Good candidates for sacking.

Money. Nvidia hands out a lot of RSUs. I’m guessing that a lot of these employees just watched their retirement take a 30% hit.

It’s easy to say you don’t have a price when no one is offering to buy you.

Obviously to 'shoot your shot' and see if he is up for yet another affair with the entire group. Why should he stop now?

Silicon Valley culture jumped the shark.

Anyone senior signing such a petition should get a very close eye from the new HR and outside counsel. (We don't need to cancel anyone. But a person in management minimizing a boss sleeping with his reports merits a second look.)

Why do people support Trump or Clinton? Cheating just isn't a big deal for most people who aren't being cheated on.

I saw the picture of his actual wife so i pardon him and i don't support gpu sanctions so what's the problem?
