Not everyone is unhappy
I have several friends who are happy to go to back to work on campus. Some people like the separation of work and home and being with other people. I don’t work there anymore, but if I did, my only complaint would be if I couldn’t have my own... — read more
Anyone have an update on PSP?
Thought this was supposed to be announced quarterly…
Great place to work if you have no expertise
Great place to work if you have no expertise. But if you’re really good at making presentations and selling some thing that is nothing you have a lot of growth opportunity ahead of you. You could be a leader in no time. However, you actually are an... — read more
Back to the subject of layoffs
Will there be any any time soon?
Thoughts on Q3 results
https://news.nike.com/news/nike-inc-reports-fiscal-2022-third-quarter-results Any thoughts? The 4% drop in net income is disappointing.
A good up to which team is more useless, Global or MPO?
I’ve worked here for almost 10 years and haven’t seen global or MPO do or provide any value….these upcoming layoffs should clean house in these orgs starting with the top down!
Earnings report
When you Google "Nike earnings report," the first link that pops up is titled "Nike Reports Earnings Monday. Don’t Get Your Hopes Up." So much for hoping that we might beat the estimates (which are already significantly lower than for the same... — read more
I am bored
I know work isn't supposed to be fun but this level of boredom is something else. No challenges, no innovation, no quality-of-life improvements, nothing. I feel stuck. I am paid well and that's the only reason why I'm still here. I'm not sure that'll... — read more
Top Layer Dumping Shares?
MP has been dumping almost 100 m USD shares since Oct 2021 till now. LY the same period he sold less than 60 M USD. Number of shares sold is also lower. What does that mean? knowing that the shares would dive? sell high and buy low, or get out while... — read more
Reality Check
Tech mostly, but this also includes WHQ. Our Nike culture is gone. Those of us that have been around a long while know this, though we want to play denial; it's gone. It's heart breaking, but is the reality (well unless you are a base VP and... — read more
CDM LAYOFFS/REORG
Anyone heard news of full picture of reorg? We were told this shift would not cost jobs, that was a lie. Layoffs and significant changes without any heads-up to leaders responsible for dismantled organizations. Poorly rolled out.
Goldman Sachs’ CEO demanded all employees return full-time to the office. Only half showed up
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/goldman-sachs-ceo-demanded-employees-210608499.html
Nike used to be a solid life force, but not it's a cancer.
When a bloated swollen blob of fat is at the helm, the existing arteries are bound to be constricted and work their black magic down into the extremities. Thus it creates rouge cells to escape and create their own rogue cells to poison the rest. ... — read more
Gas prices and forced return to campus
Sooooo, are those of us who MUST show up on campus going to get reimbursed for gas? And do we get to count our commute time as part of our work day as our "I'm in the remote pilot" co-workers start their work day from home? Yah. That's what I... — read more
Every person I know in the company is trying to find a way out
How the mighty have fallen.
I wonder if this'll affect us
Closing of all the stores in Russia might be temporary but it's still going to hurt us financially. I wonder if we'll end up having to pay the price through more layoffs. I don't expect that any compensation for this virtue signaling will come from... — read more
Nike used to care about employees
I know it's hard for some of the new people to believe this, but Nike really did care. I stay here even now because I keep hoping that things will change for the better once again. It's not impossible. All we need is to get people who care about... — read more
What is Nike so afraid of?
DO THE RIGHT THING AND SAY SOMETHING
Career path
I wonder how much progress in your career have you made while working here? I work in Manufacturing and have been in the same position for a long time.
Yay. Employee survey time.
A time to reflect on how terrible leadership has become across the board. GT, NDP... and more! Yay.
Peace Above All
How you know nike lost its best people : Nike doesn’t have anything to say but moncler knew exactly what to say.
COVID-19 Layoffs due to not being vaccinated
Does anybody have any idea how many people were laid off due to not being vaccinated?
Global Sports Apparel
What is going on in Global Sports Apparel? Just the worst leaders. Out of their depth in every way. It's embarrassing. The Product leader is like a deer in headlights. And the design leader is just straight up incompetent. True white male privilege... — read more
Layoffs due to not being Covid-19 Vaccinated

Nike Employee Vs Nike Employee
I love The debate over what OTHER people want to do when it comes to this back to WHQ drama. It is easily the most divisive topic I have seen during my 20+ years at Nike. We should all just focus on what YOU want to do. We should not let Nike pit... — read more
They have lost touch with reality
It is questionable how familiar this company is with employee marketplace today. I think they have lost touch with reality, which is most clearly seen in the fact that they want employees back to Campus? Someone needs to tell those at the top... — read more
Return to Campus
Get ready for April 1!
Wasted years
There's a lot at Nike that needs improvement, but I find it really funny when someone says that they've wasted years of their lives here. I know many people whose careers have not progressed here a whole lot, but thanks to the experience here they... — read more
Is life after Nike really that good?

Marketing strategy
A lot of things have always depended heavily on the marketing strategy. Before I even came here, I remember being thrilled with the ways the brand was presented. I'm not saying that today's marketing strategy is bad, I don't even have the... — read more
HR
How can a HR department be so bad for so long? Been at Nike for 16 years and it amazes me at how horrible Nike is at identifying talent in its own company and the process we have to undergo to get a new role. Interviewed for a outside company and I... — read more
Remember when Nike was on the offense always?
Now they are suing everyone. Doesn’t feel like offense to me. Where is the innovation? Suing StockX for selling make believe shoes in a make believe world. Suing Lulu for a… mirror, suing former employees. Yet, not one article about any new... — read more
There's talk about buying Peloton
Guess how that'd be paid for? Certainly not from shareholder profits or the ELT pay. Which leaves the rest of us. If this goes through, we're screwed.
This place gets more embarrassing by the week
How did we go from being proud to say we work at Nike to feeling ashamed for that same thing? Maybe if they start holding those in leadership accountable for all the mistakes they're making and scandals they're causing, we'd be able to turn this ship... — read more
Nike making a big Purchase like Peelitbacktone
PHK has never made a non-portfolio purchase like this, although he was presented a sound reason for buying Nautilus, 41 years ago, for 4.7 Million. Nautilus was not exactly the Pelotonning of it's time, but the reasoning was clear, Total Fitness... — read more
Disappointed
That’s the best word for what I feel now after half a year at Nike - disappointment. I thought that this was a much better company and that I would enjoy working here much more than I actually do. Maybe I'm drawing conclusions too soon? I don't... — read more
$4000 bonus for each employee vaccinated
A friend of mine in HR (not at Nike) told me that her company was given Covid relief money if all employees were vaccinated by December 31, 2021, a $4000 bonus for each employee. Does anyone know if NIke received funding for mandating that all... — read more
