How long will this last?

If only one more colleague leaves, I too will leave, even if it means that I will have to agree to a lower pay somewhere else. It makes no sense that people are leaving and their positions never getting backfilled. How long do they think it will... — read more

Promotions in NA Supply Chain

LH demonstrated that you don’t need experience to be a leader when he promoted GT….although we all know KH was behind that as GT bows down to her still. Now MW is a director? All this says is experience isn’t needed. She’s a disorganized mess. — read more

Budget issues in Nike Tech?

Budget cuts everywhere that are unattainable? Want to know why? We're not doing layoffs "right now" (cough), but this is how Nike gathers the money for future package layoffs. It's coming! I've been through this enough times where this is the... — read more

Any predictions on quarterly report?

Despite everything, I was hoping that this would be a good quarter. Now I read that Wall Street is slashing earnings expectations. Not good.

Be grateful that Nike is a large corp

I'm not a fan of the anchor days, but I'm grateful that there's some flexibility. There are a lot of companies that are requiring in house five days a week even after they promised remote work. How does that work? No idea. Pre-pandemic we... — read more

Micromanagement

Is this the new norm at Nike or am I just unlucky and my new manager is an id--t who can't realize that those of us who've been here for over a decade know what we're doing much better than he does? He's grating on my nerves and I swear I'm going to... — read more

JDI Day Disappointment

Putting this out there - been to so many previous JDI days and this one was a complete and utter fizzle. Bring us together in one place. Do not make this day all across campus. It was terrible. So many teams putting everything out on the line and it... — read more

The goal is to avoid layoffs

The leadership wants to reduce the headcount organically. That's why they have created an environment that any sane person would want to leave as fast as they can. And that's why you can see people leaving in droves constantly and most of them are... — read more

The Nike proxy statement is interesting

I hope all of you who own Nike shares actually read the proxy statement and vote your shares accordingly. The proxy statement has some absolute gems in it. For example: “The employee identified at the median of all NIKE employees (other than our... — read more 

Nike’s branding is going down the gutter

Go look on Nike’s IG. What is the strategy here? It’s literally nothing but androgynous looking women. That’s not who buys product. I’m at a loss at this point.

Nike Stasi

When will the people fired get their jobs back? The chickens have come home to roost at the CDC. Time for the Nike Stasi to cry uncle and rehire the persecuted.

Well-being week makes me want to never go back

Our group is being shuffled again, I have another new manager, my job makes no sense, and every reorg just means someone else is trying to jam their agenda. Well-being week = job search week. This place is terrible.

Remote work in the future?

Nike Non-Compete + Medical Insurance

If Nike forces you to sit out on a Non-Compete... do they have to continue to pay your medical insurance during that time? Does anyone have any insight on the medical insurance side?

I plan to submit my resignation

I thought it would be very easy to give notice, but it it's not. On the one hand, I'm glad that I found a better opportunity, but on the other, it's still stressful after so many years here, to start again from scratch somewhere else. What I'm... — read more 

Strangely quiet here

This page used to popping with rumors (some false, some true) and info leaks almost daily this time of year. Not just some of the complaining posts I’ve seen, but actual posts with juicy substance. Now it is just crickets. Did posters move on? Is... — read more 

We've lost so many good people

All the smart and technical folks are either long gone or are actively working on their exit strategy. Nike used to be the place that attracted the best but that's no longer the case. I've been here a long time and watching the quality of the... — read more 

What happens end of July for non vaxxers?

Accommodations expire at the end of July, and the on site testing center is also closing. The process to come on campus for non vaxxers now includes getting tested at the on-site facility. Any intel on what happens end of July? Do accommodations get... — read more 

What are the leadership's biggest mistakes?

Nike is slowly becoming a bigger and bigger mess. Of course, the leadership will not be interested in feedback, but anyway, where do you think they are making their biggest mistakes right now? I would like this to be the company that I used to love... — read more 

Org chart in flux

If nothing else, the benefit of working with someone for a long time is that you know what to expect. It's become a bit exhausting for me to have a new manager every few months. I don't even have time to get used to the manager, because a new one is... — read more 

July layoffs

Which areas are expected to be hit in July?

I'm so tired of my boss I'm considering quitting

Why does Nike promote incompetent people? There are more than enough excellent employees who know what they're doing and who possess the people skills needed for management positions. My new boss of six months is not supportive, provides no guidance... — read more 

Nike did much better in earnings than many expected

Considering the constant inflation and the situation in China, many have expected much, much worse results. Nike did as well as it could with the external factors being what they are. I will never understand why people like to diminish positive... — read more 

How much do you care about your job?

So, there are more and more people who say that they are not afraid of whether they will be laid off, giving the impression that they no longer care about the job here, and yet they are still here. This is not easy to understand. I also think Nike... — read more 

At top of comp range

I made a lateral job move mid-year to a new department with no change in pay and turns out my pay is at the very top of my new job’s range. I am assuming there is very little ability for my manager to increase my base pay this review season… Does... — read more 

Anti Choice or what?

Hey did anyone else see a recent social media post claiming Nike donated $267K in 2020 to anti-choice candidates or their political PACs. Then… recently virtue signaling by offering travel benefits for those seeking reproductive health care out of... — read more 

Almost everything has changed

Now that I’m leaving, I’m thinking about how much the Nike has changed in the 10 years that have passed since I got the job here. It's as if nothing is the same anymore. How much has Nike changed since you came here?

Nike Earnings Out Today

CDO & CDA were both announced around the timing of year-end earnings. Wonder what surprises we have in store today? At least we should finally know our PSP %.

Be prepared

I've read in several places that more layoffs are coming to Nike, with tech most likely to be affected. This is especially bad considering all the recent layoffs in tech and the fact that now a lot of people are applying for the same jobs, which... — read more
