NIKE expects certain teams on campus now
Nike expects Nike HR and certain Tech teams to be on campus, before the RTW on Jan 10. WD&C also expects "all" admins to be onsite. I will be submitting an ER and I hope all admins do the same.

People are sticking around for severance
I think management has miscalculated their moves. If their goal with constant layoffs was to create an atmosphere of fear that would force people to leave, I'm not sure it worked. In fact, I think it has had the opposite effect. I know many people... — read more
