We work hard at NVIDIA, but everyone needs to take time off every once in a while. Because everyone's needs are different, our time off benefits are flexible. You decide when you want time off, work it out with your manager, and take the time you need.
Learn more about these time away programs and more at NVINFO > My Info > Time Away (U.S.).
Overall, our approach remains that you should decide when to take a break to relax, enjoy life, or attend to personal needs. You should work out the specifics with your manager. Hourly employees will accrue 15 days of PTO per year. Salaried employees don't accrue paid time off and should work with their manager to arrange for time away.
Interns do not receive PTO and can work with their managers regarding unpaid time away.
Employees have up to ten paid business days to grieve for an immediate family member.
Employees can take as much time as required to perform their civic responsibilities to serve as a juror or witness.
Employees will receive 80 hours of paid sick leave per calendar year.
NVIDIA offers multiple leave programs when you need to take time off from work for reasons other than vacation. Learn more on NVINFO > My Info > Leave of Absence (U.S.).
