We should expect another reorg in Feb/March. EH is a joke
Anyone know what is going on with Nike Studios?
Last month, the Nike Training / Running Studio that I go to abruptly closed for two days of "maintenance". During that time, they got rid of all in-studio staff except the trainers, instituted self-check in and set up a new central phone number and... — read more
Nike didn’t deserve CW
I said it. Great people leader, passionate about product and people but ultimately the Berm isn’t the right environment.
Just do better VA
Tech should make work faster, simpler, and more effective. Even at a company like Nike, where the heart is brand, product, and sport - a strong tech foundation is essential to competing in today’s marketplace. What’s tough is when leadership... — read more
I have an idea for EH
Stop reorging every 6 months. Stick to one organizational model, have a resilient plan that you can stick to for at least 24 months. All of these constant changes erodes motivation, creativity and our trust in the leadership. Help us build the brand... — read more
So MD was remote?
It shows her location as WA field instead of WHQ.
Tech cuts seem likely.
Consolidating the Tech leadership under a "sustainability" COO IN the same 2 weeks everyone is being told to hurry up and update their skills listing in Workday. The writing seems on the wall for another season of tech "reorganization". Does this... — read more
Talent Upleveling - Compounding Problem
One problem Nike has that doesn't get discussed enough is how they are so reluctant to promote people anymore. The promotions wave after this round of layoffs is hardly what it should have been when you stretch that over years of time that they froze... — read more

Interesting - folks posting within minutes after CW and MD announcements. Nothing else to do? Like do your work?

Dr. Muge Dogan will leave the company

Nike in Amazon is mistake!!!
Like it happen to many direct sellers in amazon before, initially Amazon will deliver significant sales increase to Nike and everyone in Nike will be happy but after few years amazon will demand more and more with higher leverage due to their sales... — read more
How safe is it to relocate for Nike?
I was offered a promotion but I'd have to move for it. It's not a bad offer, but with all the cuts, I'm a bit hesitant to pack up and move my entire family and then potentially end up jobless. Is this something that actually happens or am I safe at... — read more
Tech post
Time for hundreds to go sit in a war room and pretend like it’s the 80’s and we don’t have laptops to support from home. Put on a smile, wear holiday sweatshirts and pretend to be honored when leaders show up or in the case of MD send a video of... — read more
This is so tiring
Nike keeps reorganizing every six months, and it's always the same story: one step forward and two steps back, like we're stuck on a loop that never ends.

It can still happen
Black friday discounts seem a bit excessive?
Good luck selling shoes for 180 bucks ever again
ABM leaving campus 11/30 not by their choice
ABM the janitorial service provider of over 200 employees and over 9 years is being transitioned out of Nike campus on a decision from CBRE, not Nike. ABM has consistently delivered exceptional experience for Nike athletes on campus, the kpi and... — read more
The whole atmosphere is just toxic
The "we're a family" messaging from leadership feels completely fake at this point. It seems like most of the truly talented people have already left, and the communication here is just shocking. I regularly hear managers shouting at people in... — read more
$3M to Republicans

PK + EH and next Decision
JD absolutely burned Nike, pure failure no question. His strategy was cost reduction and DTC, no real tech chops as PK hoped, fitting of a consultant. Company value cut in half 2020-2024 during his time! How does PK wipe the egg off his face after... — read more
EH is administration is failure!! Fatality!!
it has been more than one year since EH got CEO job. I know Nike production is made and delivered in 6 to 9 months to consumers through Futures program to their store. Now he has no excuse to use JD's incompetence as excuse for having top of the... — read more
Dividend up 2.5% week after Wellness Week cancelled
So happy wellness week went away to help cover dividends going up 2.5%. You'd think they wouldn't be so tone deaf and at least wait a quarter.

What are they upto?
Please help
Honest question: Why is Nike now following trends and not setting them as they used to? I see many of the completion shoe styles replicated by Nike designers across running and basketball. Apparel as well.
Anyone let go from Resilience?
It can’t just be me but does anyone see the logic in the random decisions? You know, the decisions to keep really unethical employees/leaders around because of favoritism or pure discrimination but let valuable employees go because they have... — read more

Converse Layoffs?
It’s disheartening to hear what’s happening with the converse team being left hanging with their fingers crossed and no clue what, who, or when, layoffs will impact. Why do this for so long dragging it out with no communication? Folks in VP and... — read more

NKE is lost
Turn it around employees. Zero identity or evolution. To EH: this isn’t 2010. Try something new for once. The old playbook is dusty. Fondly, Former shareholder
HR Reorg
Anyone know which team(s) were impacted by the recent HR reorg?
Still thinking about EH's index card at the Nike Team Meeting
I want to say that I like and trust EH and think he's what we need. All of that. But comms handing him a card that says the chat was being mean was strange in a way that I think illustrates something. I remember seeing a lot of shock and surprise in... — read more
I have yet to see any effects of the layoffs or reshuffling
What I don’t see is Nike ever reaching the heights of its old glory again. I actually used to enjoy working here. Now it just feels like any other random job that could vanish at any moment, and I wouldn't even care. You can’t be invested when... — read more
Tech domains - any worth it or all worthless?
Feels like a lot of waste. Where is the value? Can we not do the same with less? Other companies seem to do fine. I don’t know where the value add or money savings comes from anymore outside RIF’s. Maybe just reset every leader. Don’t know if any... — read more
Nike needs to stop treating reorgs like they’re a substitute for strategy.
Every time the org chart gets shuffled, employees don’t feel “aligned”; they feel like another layoff wave is coming. That kind of background anxiety eventually becomes its own full-time job. The constant context switching is just as costly. Teams... — read more

Nike HR: Can’t get it right for themselves
I’m genuinely curious if anyone else wonders what’s going on with Nike’s HR function. The constant layoffs, reorgs, and shifting structures are confusing at best and destabilizing at worst. If HR can’t get things right for themselves, how are they... — read more
Nike be warned!!! don't get too close with amazon
