Confusing! I cannot keep up with all the mixed messages from the “leadership” team. So, is January 2021 the end of THIS reorganizational play or is it now June / July, 2021? Any insight from anyone? This is also my question. Someone posted it on... — read more

Did you get a meeting invite from your boss or upper management just before? Was a meeting scheduled far in advance? Did they present your severance at that time? Any light you can shed would be appreciated.

Every time the stock price stalls, Nike announces an increase in the layoff numbers. It's now a strategy for those VPs who will be leaving too. As long as that price keeps going up, they will procrastinate the big layoff.
