Almost summer Fridays. 4 hours of less toxic environment
Nike is HMS Titanic....
it is too big. Too bloated. Too bureaucratic. I don't think EH can turn this big ship without grounding it. Not even his Grandma can turn Nike around. MP just rode the ride and let it get big. JD drove this 18 wheeler to the ditch. EH cannot pull... — read more
Consultant Clown JW
Who the FK hired JW into Nike? Classic do-nothing consultant who only got the gig because another all-talk-no-substance “leader” (shoutout CG) got promoted. We are so fing tired of working for him. He has delivered exactly jack sh-t in NAO, and now... — read more
Getting teams to perform right now is extremely difficult
People are beyond demoralized. How do you motivate anyone when there are no rewards, the workload is crushing after repeated layoffs, and there's no mission or company success to believe in? If leadership actually has long-term plans, and that's a... — read more
It is a Mistake - "GAME" over - No Turn Around -
https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/jim-cramer-nike-one-bigger-153440220.html
It’s concerning
People I work with do not even watch sports, and some never bother to learn. It makes Nike feel like just another corporation, if it ever was more
JD vs EH
Educated at Ivy League universities vs no-name college Worked at prestigious organizations like Bain, Paypal, Service now vs Nike only experience ( that too which he got by literally begging for it) $170 share price and $52 billion revenue vs... — read more
D-mb question
If you get laid off and get say 6 months severance and you currently put 1k per month into 401 k does Nike give you the 6k or do they deposit the 6k into 401k? Trying to figure severance numbers just in case. Thanks
Jim Cramer Is Out
He admits he stayed too long in the stock, thought EH turn around plan was solid, had high hopes He now realizes he was wrong All investors have a timeline and then they lose patience, take the loss and move on Should we do the same, that espp... — read more
I realized it's smarter to keep my mouth shut
Upward feedback only works when the person above you actually wants to hear it. Ours just wants to hear that everything is fine and if you say something that challenges that state, you're labeled a problem.
I've landed at "not care"
From truly enjoying my work here years ago, to all the stress from waves of layoffs throughout the decline, now I've reached the point where I have no hope that Nike will ever again be a great company to work for, and I'm looking forward to being on... — read more
April 23rd All Team Event Postponed
Is the dilemma and misery coming to an end?
Another week, another torment!
It’s getting ridiculous!
Nike running is dead
From product I see, adidas is about to pull the ki-l shot and eliminate Nike from performance running. Not to mention legit running brands with top innovation ASICS, Brooks, Saucony with Hoka, New Balance and ON taking casual running.
NDE SERVE Intercompany Clearing
While scheduling a meeting I noticed some coworkers’ roles had that string added to their role. Does anyone here know what it means?
Tony Bignell resigns!!
in your opinion, do you think that is positive or negative?
world cup 2026 seems like it lost a lot momentum
with Iran declaring that they will not participate and who know how many more team will pull out if war gets out of control. With only 2 months to go for opening match, based on what I hear from hospitality sources is that there is no momentum or... — read more
Nike's stock has been FAR weaker than market movements last few weeks
Where is NIke's destination eventurally, that is the question that has been floating around a lot in this platform. As long as EH and upper management maintains this death march to the Death Valley, it will be in the teens. Quite frankly, I was... — read more
Massive dip in value is advantageous
Now trading nearly 80% down from ATH… it all but guarantees enough of a reduction in estate tax that TK would retain a majority of voting control. Could suppressing growth be intentional to lessen estate tax such that majority voting control is... — read more
World Cup Quality Issues
https://www.gbnews.com/sport/football/nike-world-cup-kit-flaw-england Related to layoffs and a loss of expertise/talent?
If there was any doubt …
All annual reviews have to be done by the 24th, which makes sense because they want the managers to complete them before the next week when the layoff will undoubtedly happen. Last week of April it is!
Layoffs loom, raises are bad, and we've all stopped caring
No wonder things are falling apart at the seams.
LA28 Olympics

I stopped at campus today and everyone just looks sad and unhappy.
Ex Nike here. I was at campus to meet a friend and the energy and people faces show the stress of the mismanagement company. So glad I quit last year. My friend encouraged me to share on here for others life is better after Nike.
The emperor has no clothes
I want to remind everyone here the actual power you have. They are scared of you, all of you. In 2018, a bunch of women spoke up with the metoo headwind with mostly unsubstiantiated claims, it collapsed the entire SLT in 2024, JD was forced out... — read more
RTO or bust
Heard from several trusted sources that RTO is on deck during this next layoff wave. Unsure if it will be before, during, or after the "reorg" / "layoffs" this quarter but seems like it's happening. wHO's exCIteD foR AlL tHe iN-OFFicE... — read more
Obviously intentional, not incompetence
The company eventually achieved the Grand or GRAT target of 50 billion. Well done, you may have sold your sole to do it. Now, well the market is always hard, and these businesses, International Footwear and Apparel are competitive, fickle, and were... — read more
This article is frighteningly true...

Promoting open roles on LI is foul
Seeing Nike employees parading open roles on LinkedIn is disgusting. You continue to layoff really qualified hard workers after you’ve su-ked the soul out of them. Those roles could have been offered to those people first. I’m ashamed to even admit... — read more
nike is gently creeping down to $30 land
I have been studying this stock (long term investor here) and I can see that it has absolutely NO support. On a day that market is flat it is down 3 percent. That is not good. That means that nobody gives sh-t about this stock today and it has... — read more
Nike is a joke.
I've been working two separate roles at Nike, simultaneously. They let go one whole department last month for one of my positions. And they just offered me half the pay I was getting for my other position. I plan to make next week my last week.
I have a riddle for you
who has body of Frankenstein head of a bimbo soul of Dracula compassion of Hannibal Lecter and once had and still thinks it have arrogance of Smalltown Prom Queen A: NIKE
How can Nike layoff emplyees and file for H1b?
The purpose of H1b is because employers can not find citizens with those skills. Today there is no shortage of SWE's, yet Nike has so many H1b's and continues to file petition for hiring them.
Don’t speak up!

Nike leadership ought to name Dave Calhoun Nike’s new CEO

Haven't checked here for 2 months. Highly recommend it.

How low can stock go?
$25/share in 2026? Appears no growth left… Analysts and banks have all unfortunately reduced price targets last week post earnings.
