Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said on Tuesday that companies should pay employees “as much as possible,” weighing in on worker compensation as South Korea’s Samsung Electronics recently reached a deal with its union to avert a strike.
Speaking at a news conference in Taipei ahead of a visit to South Korea, Huang said he believes in rewarding employees generously, though he stopped short of commenting directly on Samsung’s labour dispute.
“I think people should be paid as much as possible,” Huang said. “I pay my employees as much as I can.”
His remarks come as Nvidia continues to ride the artificial intelligence boom, which has propelled the company’s market value to record levels and created substantial wealth for employees holding stock options.
