Most CEOs are fired for this. There are some exceptions sure but there are always exceptions. In reality, an affair with a subordinate is an express ticket to getting fired in Corporate America.

Only if you get exposed publicly like Huang, and sometimes not even then.

Otherwise nobody gives a shit and it happens all the time. 1. Larry Ellison had several affairs with employees. Elon Musk with at least 1 reported by WSJ. Eric Schmidt. And those are just the biggest profile tech ones.
