What bonus makes Samsung workers strike? 💸🤯

SK Hynix paid 136M won (~$93,000) per employee as year-end bonus. Total for 35,000 workers. This year's projected bonus: ~$83,000 per person.

Hynix engineers are now hotter in dating markets than doctors or lawyers.

How? Bet everything on HBM. Decade of亏损. Two bankruptcies. Then AI exploded.

And Jensen? He personally pours beer for Hynix engineers. Calls them "one team."
