Nike and Wall Street
Why do we keep seeing these bull headlines for Nike with nothing to back it up to show that they can do it. This says Nike could have a 40+ % swing my July of Nike year. What are you... — read more
Laid off from nike a few months ago. the layoff wasn’t even the part that hurt
I actually believed the “nike family” thing. treated coworkers like friend not just people i clocked in with..that’s on me for being naive i guess but the people who still have jobs there? spineless. i sat next to these people for years covered for... — read more
Paid COBRA Option?
Has anyone taken the Nike paid COBRA coverage? I signed up for it today but it's alarming that in the Wageworks system it says "participant paid" and I'm on the hook for a $2400 monthly bill to cover everything for the 4 members of the family. Are we... — read more
you’ll never guess who I just saw on West Campus 👀
I just saw into CR on West Campus and low‑key freaked out. He used to be one of my favorite tech leaders before he moved into that executive role in sebcoe amd then left us for a big tech company. Do you think he might be coming back?

Can anyone give a valid reason why I should open Outlook emails or Teams every day when I'm at work?
My job description does not specifically state I need to read and respond to worthless emails. Nor does my job description state I need to attend useless meetings to hear some other Nike loser ramble on about absolutely nothing that interests me.
74%
I'll take 74
We are winning!
EH is the right leader to turn this ship around. Very proud of him!
Earnings Call
Anyone listen to the earnings call. Thoughts?
WTH is Happening??
Not that I'm surprised and it isn't shocking that earnings were dismal and the stock is falling fast. What's next? The Dow replaces Nike? This is a sad time for Nike. I pray for a recovery.
What is PSP?
Laid off in April. Wondering what PSP will be, if anything. Thank you.
APLA restructuring?
No GM assigned. Moving to a country model?
Caste bias in tech layoffs and re-orgs?
Has any data-driven analysis been done on caste bias in tech layoffs and re-orgs? I am an outsider to the Indian community, but I frequently see discussions regarding caste or community bias playing a role in tech hiring, promotions, and re-orgs... — read more
Performance Reviews
Does your review actually mean anything at Nike? Promotions are non existent so is there any benefit to getting Exceeds Expectations over Achieves? Genuinely curious.
EH should be replaced!
I assume most on this site is current Nike employee or recent former employees. if you think that EH should replaced then click positive or plus if you think that EH and his cronies should be given more chance then click negative or minus.
Ok lemme get this straight
Hundreds of millions already spent on AI with no benefits so far. None 1400 laid off does not balance the ai debt. Shipped jobs to ITC and vendors who do absolutely nothing and are robbing us with inflated contracts that leadership is clueless... — read more
after watching every match in group stage of current World Cup
I would rank in this order Puma adidas Nike Now, this is for all practical purpose, a three horse race. Nike's products were old, lackluster and uninspiring. Led by Nike's top endorsee Brazil which is not having best time in their... — read more
PSP?
Full disclosure I am an ex-employee and my term date was in April so I’m not eligible, but wondering if y’all are getting any PSP this year ? Usually would have been announced by now
Private Equity

India - IT talent - Nike Can't afford.
Real talent cost as much as PHK.
Nike is my first job out of college. I started working at the Portland office two months ago.
I have been picking up vibes that a lot of Nike employees here I interact with are antifa. They are pretty open about it and wear it as a badge of honor. I'm trying to steer clear of these weirdos.
When will they begin?
I keep hearing about layoffs but nobody will say when. Does anyone know when they'll actually start?
Where does the employee see Nike 5 years from now?
I dont care about Wall Street analyst and media hype. I am curious about what folks in the trenches think.
EH must go! Old tricks are not working!
EH failed. This decade is widely different than the time period he worked at Nike before. He is a boomer, and doesn't belong anymore in the age of social media, AI. Time for him to retire (again...duh!) and Nike need to bring young radical minds to... — read more

New CFO | We are F’d
Have you guys looked at his history past where he’s worked? Do a quick ChatGPT/Gemini search on his roles at his previous corps. People talking about PE in the other thread. No need. This guy will do the same they’d do, without selling out. His... — read more
I think we're past the point of saving Nike
I used to think things could turn around but I don't anymore. The damage is too deep after one too many bad decisions. I don't think there's any saving this place anymore.
EH as CEO
Two years to reshape the C-suite? Why wasn’t that done in year one? Feels like another long, drawn out strategy instead of action. If it takes this long to make leadership changes, what does that say about fixing the real problems? And let’s not... — read more
You can tell layoffs are in the air
