#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
    char employeeName[5][20],employeeSalary[5];
    int i;
    int maxSalary=0, maxEmpl=-1;
    for(i=0;i<5;i++)
    {
        printf("Enter details of employee no. %d :",i+1);
        scanf("%s",employeeName[i];
        scanf("%d",&employeeSalary[i]);
        if(employeeSalary[i]>maxSalary)
        {
            maxSalary=employeeSalary[i];
            maxEmpl=i;
        }
    }
    printf("Employee %s has the max salary %d", employeeName[maxEmpl],employeeSalary[maxEmpl]);
}

you had a missing ) but otherwise the program is OK

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
char employeeName[5][20],employeeSalary[5];
int i;
int maxSalary=0, maxEmpl=-1;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)
  {
  printf("Enter details of employee no. %d :",i+1);
  scanf("%s",employeeName[i]);  // ** missing )
  scanf("%d",&employeeSalary[i]);
  if(employeeSalary[i]>maxSalary)
     {
     maxSalary=employeeSalary[i];
     maxEmpl=i;
     }
  }
printf("Employee %s has the max salary %d", employeeName[maxEmpl],employeeSalary[maxEmpl]);
}
 

it is a good idea to indent the code as it make the overall structure clearer

While comparing you are trying to compare the Char with an int (i.e Salary)...
as a beginner try to study the multidimensional array of strings and then try to implement it where at that time also you have to convert that salary into an integer by using atoi then only you can compare it...

Better see the below program will help you which is taken only a integer that to single dimensional array....

Note: you have to enter the Emp no as a integer..

Example
Emp no is 6695 or 66785 like thatnot excedding 32767
and salary can exceed see the datatype....

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main()
{
    int emp[10]
    unsigned int sal[10];
    int i,j=0,
    unsigned int max=0;
    clrscr();
    for(i=0;i<3;i++)
    {
        printf("Enter the Emp No: ");
        scanf("%d",&emp[i]);
        printf("Enter the Salary: ");
        scanf("%u",&sal[i]);
        if(sal[i]>max)
        {
            j=i;
        }
    }
    printf("The Highest salry person is %d and his salary is %u",emp[j],sal[j]);
    getch();
    return 0;
}
