Nvidia's employees are begging the board to bring Jensen Huang back.

An internal post calling for his reinstatement has pulled in over sixteen hundred comments, and most of them are on his side. This is the man who resigned in disgrace over multiple reported affairs, and the workforce he left behind is essentially saying, we don't care, give us our CEO back. You can see him here, leather jacket and all, the face of the company for three decades.

And honestly, you can understand the panic inside those offices. The stock has been in freefall since he walked, Congress wants him under oath, and nobody has filled the chair. When the house is on fire, people tend to want the person who built the house.

The board now has to choose between a scandal and a share price. Sixteen hundred comments say the employees already have.
