Like any wildly successful company, the people who got in at the start benefit the most. Nike was also fortunate to have hit the mother lode with Jordan and Tiger. They literally did not plan that and weren’t really even necessarily prepared to... — read more 

My experiences at Nike gave me an appreciation for the various benefits of working for an industry leader (not just the compensation). But also found that the kind of people drawn to an industry leader were not necessarily the ones who you’d want as... — read more 

Host - "Hello welcome to NIKE" "What is your favorite sport?" New VP- "I dont like SPORTS" Zoom Audience - ''''''' Awkward!

Has the dust settled? Are we done with layoffs for the year? Was it over 500 people after all?

Curious who got da chop!

I survived, for now. But I am so anxious that I'll be let go. My skills are transferable and I should be able to find a decent job relatively easily. And yet, I am anxious and dread rejection. It almost feels that without Nike I'd use my identity... — read more 

Is it 1:1 with your manager? How about HR? What do they tell you?

Been away from Nike since the 2017 layoff and recently heard from friends that another round was going on. I am not going to go into a role of bashing Nike but I will say that a lot of good people were let go in 2017 that were honest, hardworking... — read more 

Any news? I'm super worried about my wife's job since the VP she supported is gone and that's twice since this all began.

One JDI 2020 winner and 4 nominees were let go. Sad. We hope Individual CFEs ,manager 360 feedback and employee survey is used to make this decisions.

10+ year vet here. What pains me the greatest is that the workers are paying the ultimate price. Many specific VPs- of Innovation; of Finance; of Categories - have willingly chosen to a) empire build; b) shirk responsibility to make brave choices and... — read more 

Employees have clearly proven we can be productive while working remotely. With more and more companies accepting remote work as the “new normal,” why is Nike reverting back to its old ways of asking people to uproot their families and lives to... — read more

Why are they hiring more people?

I thought there would be no downlevelling at Nike but it seems to be happening. On another thread here @bwk+17DWAnKb I see that some have been offered options to move to a lower position or take severance. I am very disappointed and I don’t know if I... — read more 

I'm very sorry for everyone laid off. I am currious if Nike at least gave their hard working employees severance packages. Like 6 month to a year's worth. If not, I'm no longer a customer.

A couple of friends were laid off from the Jordan side. It is happening everywhere, we are just not hearing about it because we are at home.

Early on the word was that merch and departments supporting the accounts would get the biggest hits. But now it is very clear those are just pieces of the puzzle. If I had known Nike direct was hit like this I would have planned differently. Too late... — read more 

Hearing of layoffs in Account Management and Sales

WITNESS - NIKE is losing its Sport culture at the cost of digitization, this company’s culture was its USP. Too many lab rats in TECH VP position, too far away from sport to understand athlete. OP by @1igy+17vMvoVA. I couldn’t agree more... — read more

Don't some of you think you might be overdoing it a bit when describing the working enviroment? Seriously, people, bring it down a notch.

So what’s next? There have been no announcements since John’s email.

This level of prolonged uncertainty is becoming a mental health risk and making nike an unsafe workplace. Can we all just use the Nike Speakup Portal, anonymously if you'd like, to speak up? Nike would HAVE TO take action if enough people pose their... — read more
