Nvidia leads major chipmakers with $6 million revenue per employee, Ark tracker says

Cathie Wood said AI is the biggest productivity release since the internet as the comparison highlighted Nvidia’s far higher employee efficiency than Broadcom, SK Hynix, Micron and Samsung.

Summary

Nvidia generated $6 million in revenue per employee among major semiconductor companies tracked by Ark Invest Tracker, more than three times Broadcom’s roughly $1.8 million, according to a post on X. The comparison also showed that SK Hynix, Micron and Samsung together employ nearly 10 times as many people as Nvidia, yet their revenue per employee was only about $900,000 to $1.4 million. ARK Invest founder Cathie Wood said the figures underscore AI’s impact on corporate productivity, writing that “AI is the most profound productivity release since the internet.”
