Would you cross over to the competition?

I have noticed Nike in the eyes of other people is a renowned brand and many think it is a privilege to work for this company. After years of working here, after seeing and hearing all sorts of things, I would love to go to a competing company. Is... — read more

Nike is not a family

You’ll never know why most people are laid off. It can be any of a number of reasons. I’d say 99% are let go for one of the following reasons: poor performance excessive absenteeism a role is eliminated or your role is duplicative ... — read more 

The mystery of layoff credentials

I don't understand why the reasoning behind my coworkers being kicked to the curb has to remain an ongoing mystery? Were they making too much money? Were they one of too many white males? Did they have a record with Hr? Not being transparent with... — read more

Layoffs this week??

Will there be layoffs this week? A coworker mentioned something but outside of that I wasn't able to find any info. I'd like to think they would wait at least a little bit longer in the new year before hitting us with something like that, but this is... — read more

Lose/lose situation?

It dawned on me today that the company has created a no win situation for us, a truly toxic environment. We spend most of our time hoping and praying we’re not involved in the next round of layoffs. But then when the layoffs are done if we’re still... — read more

You deserve better in 2021

Leaving Nike was the best thing that could have happened to me. As other people have said, you don't realize how toxic the place is until you are gone. There are so many great jobs outside of the swoosh. Don't allow yourself to feel trapped. You... — read more

Glad to be gone

I’ve been gone over 6 months. I spent years at Nike, and realize today that I don’t miss anything about the company itself. There are people who I miss, those who weren’t into the political games and actually worked as a team. I still keep in touch... — read more

What may be legal, doesn’t mean it’s ethical.

The ELT and CLT should think hard about this one. Real hard. Or is it that your pockets are so lined that you turn your head? Again, unethical. How do you sleep? You can afford to move on and land your next heavy pay check. Someone needs to... — read more

When I was just starting out I was very young and only now do I see that I have stayed longer than needed in the company. I guess one becomes complacent and doesn’t think long term about career, and then after a few years finds themselves in trouble... — read more

Nike in public vs. Nike in reality

Yes, yes, yes, just like that: Nike mastered the art of deception and unethical behaviors that go undetected to its own employees and the public. I work in HR and I know this much is true. I absolutely agree. Are you horrified when you read... — read more

Beware Earnings

So earnings is set for this Friday, after market-close, before a long holiday break? That’s a pretty classic tactic to bury bad news. Seems a bit sketchy to me.

Layoffs veiled as promotions.

Be wary of personnel changes like promotions/demotions/geographic moves where leadership secretly assumes the employee will either decline or eventually end up leaving. Those aren't counted as "layoffs," but they're part of the strategy. NIke is... — read more

Boycott nike

Any corporation firing people in the middle of a pandemic while making profits does not deserve to grow. Please boycott Nike this holiday and give to employers who have avoided or made efforts to retain and support the personnel this season.
