Dearest Swoosh, You championed the numbers by celebrating those 'amazing' sales results from SNKRS. You took credit for building an incredible consumer offense. You 'leveled' the playing field and re-imagined the digital queue. You out... — read more 

Do the right thing, SLT. Make clear that the rules apply to EVERYONE.

I don’t know for how long the effect of the last scandal with AH and her son will last, but I’m worried about how much impact it can have on our career and job mobility? It is stressful for me to work for a company that’s caught up in a public... — read more

I started at Nike back in 2015 and have seen it just get worse and worse here. 2015 was the last year where it actually felt like Nike was taking care of its employees - everything that I'd heard about working for Nike seemed to happen. Since then... — read more 

Are the EES really anonymous? Anyone been retaliated against something they wrote in the survey before?

https://www.bizjournals.com/portland/news/2021/02/27/resell-nike-hebert-west-coast.html I usually turn a blind eye to this stuff as I enjoy my job, but.....Seriously?!?!?! AH and Nike brass just letting this occur with no repercussions or even... — read more 

I’m fine here, I have to be honest, I’m paid for doing a job I really love. However, lately I’ve been bothered by snobbery, which I can’t get used to. I feel like I’m being asked to take that snobbish stance too in order to fit in better and progress... — read more 

I joined Nike three years ago. I was so hyped about it, too. It's Nike, you know? Well, that didn't turn out remotely as well as I had expected and hoped for. I might have been unlucky to get some of the worst managers this company has ever seen, but... — read more 

I was moved in CDA under a team completely different from my old one. I don’t know what I’m doing and constantly feel lost - but because it’s a CDA move I’m expected to already know what I don’t. Anyone else in the same boat? I’m working crazy hours... — read more

I spent 25 years at the swoosh before being caught up in the job eliminations in 2018. My first 10 - 12 years were absolutely the best! Challenging work, GREAT PEOPLE to work with, a culture that was vibrant and positive for the most part. When... — read more 

Recently, a younger colleague complained to me that he is a victim of backstabbing and that he would prefer to leave the company because he does not know how to deal with it. Sticking a knife in someone's back is nothing new here. It took me a... — read more 

I’ve always wanted to work at Nike because I was impressed by what presented itself as a corporate culture. I thought there was room for everyone here. I don’t think so anymore. If you’re a more introverted type by nature, you’re not going to have... — read more 

I stumbled upon an old clip in which Steve Jobs, shortly after the release of the Nike+ product line, gives advice to Nike to “get rid of the cra**y stuff”. It seems to me that we have now more than ever just such things, and less and less great... — read more 

How strict is Nike about enforcing a non-compete agreement? I was offered a position with a competitor and I don’t want it to come back and bite me where the sun doesn’t shine if I accept. The pay and benefits are slightly better than what I am... — read more 

This forum is largely ignored by Wall Street analysts, the Nike stock is stronger than ever among Institutional holders. The posters here are presenting a picture of a dumpster fire at best, mass abuse of employees at worst. It has become an... — read more 

CDA has been a huge mess! JD was very transparent early on but now that his mission is spiraling out of control he is MIA - not to mention his last all company meeting was a DISASTER. This guy needs to go because he is driving this ship into... — read more

WhY are posts here getting removed? I have seen posts get deleted that don’t name any names or share company information. What’s the deal?

Dressed as squirrels delivering layoff notices to random employees. Keep a bowl of nuts ready. I heard it might derail them. Seriously, this is not a site for nonsense posts. This site is meant for those affected or to be affected. The fear... — read more 

I know a lot of employees who are loyal to Nike, and I know a lot of current/former employees who hate the company with passion - and that’s fine in either case. Regardless how you feel, you need to look out for yourself and your future. No one knows... — read more 

Someone said they heard next round of layoffs will be March. Has anyone else heard this?

Sr. Director and below please. Honesty appreciated. All I’m hearing is negativity. I am so tired. Give me something to believe in again.

During the few years spent here there were nice and less nice moments, but overall, it was a pleasure to work at Nike. This is my first job and I am grateful for the opportunity to be able to come here without any previous experience. However, it is... — read more 

Looks like our store management has been given an order to cut costs on their own any way they can, since now they've started firing people for smallest infringements. Not laying people off, literally firing them with no severance or anything like... — read more

Should we organize a Nike employee union. It appears Google has one now. I don’t even know what a union does other than piss off rich people. Let’s use NEU as our working acronym, because without an acronym this will never work at Nike. Thoughts? — read more 

So HJ convinced JD she was a VC, that is some magic for a one trick Sustainability exec. Still hard to believe they handed Phil's personal totem to a person with no background. I guess when you hold cards that no one wants aired, you can write any... — read more 

Can we rally? The attrition is starting. We're losing really talented people. WHY? Because Nike doesn't believe in internal promotions or growth. There is no career path. You are stuck in a stagnant role for years without the opportunity to get... — read more

I learned there’s no “taking a sick day” anymore. You fall in one of three availability categories: 1) Dead and have an excuse, 2) Have contracted COVID-19 and have an excuse, or 3) are just fine, because you’re WFH after all and there are presumably... — read more

Nike is vacating a lot of leased space in Beaverton, does that mean we may be gearing up for a remote working future? Anyone heard anything?

Your workload will keep increasing until you simply can't physically get it done - even with (nonpaid) overtime. And instead of being recognized for going above and beyond, you're then going to be reprimanded for not getting it all done. The best... — read more 

I have been working here for 11 years. It would be logical that with the experience and the routine I gained I can now have a more harmonious work/ life balance. Paradoxically, what is happening now is that I am finding it increasingly difficult to... — read more 

It seems there aren’t a lot of good places to go to when things go rotten at Nike. HR dept will eventually get ahold of most employee problems that arise and leave us all wondering if anything is actually registering. When the story eventually breaks... — read more
