Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, the world's leading company by market capitalization, has been named the top CEO in the United States by his employees.
On August 12, Glassdoor announced its list of the "50 Best CEOs of 2026," with Huang achieving a remarkable employee approval rating of 99%.
NVIDIA employees praised Huang in anonymous reviews, describing him as a "dynamic and authentic leader," a "visionary leader," and a "rock star."
In second place was Jason Johnson, CEO of car wash company Quick Quack Car Wash, followed by Kevin Lobo, CEO of medical device company Stryker, both with an employee approval rating of 93%.
In the tech sector, Bill McDermott, CEO of ServiceNow, ranked 13th, while Vlad Kliatchko, CEO of Bloomberg, was 35th, and Apple’s Tim Cook came in at 37th. A total of nine CEOs from tech companies made the list of 50.
This evaluation was based on anonymous employee reviews submitted to Glassdoor from May of last year to May of this year. Companies with over 1,000 employees that received at least 75 reviews for their CEO and senior management were eligible.
NVIDIA also ranked third in Glassdoor's "2026 Best Places to Work," following car wash company Crew Carwash and In-N-Out Burger. Google was ranked 11th, Micron 59th, and Apple 77th.
