Laying off 400 people out of 70,000+ is theater

Laying off 400 people in a multi-billion dollar company with over 70,000 employees is a performance. Bottom Line impact: Negligible. Some say Nike hires the best, smartest. Well then: Retool with the amazing talent. Do It differently than other... — read more 

Business as usual? Not really.

I find the lack of information being shared following EH's announcement frustrating. When will they share the sports/categories we'll be structured under (yes we can guess what they are but some official info would be great)? When will the VP round... — read more 

[Non-Tech] What happened to reducing SKUs?

Why haven’t we reduced our product offerings? I thought the ‘reduce SKUs’ insight back in 2020 was supposed to become a strategy to simply make less product. Appears we still have 12,000+ products for sale on Nike.com.

There used to be a sense of pride here

Now it’s just quiet fear and survival mode. No one feels safe, and the idea of having to train someone who didn’t even earn the role is just salt in the wound. I don’t want to be here anymore. Whatever culture we had has been replaced by spreadsheets... — read more 

It’s hard coming here now

Too many tech threads and complaining in the tech organization. I use to come here and listen to the complaints around the organization. Now, it’s drowned out by tech people complaining about everything under the sun.

Nike is cooked

Zero cool factor or gravitational pull for kids these days. Leaders are dusty and think the 90s hype and 00s growth is coming back. Not happening. Time to downscale and reset expectations.

Genuine question for this forum

How many of you actually enjoy your job? Not tolerate it, not put up with it for the paycheck, but truly find satisfaction in it? I don’t know anyone in my circle who does. Curious if that’s just my bubble or something bigger.

How's your job search going?

I’ve officially given up on Nike. I’ve been looking non-stop for at least six months and received a few offers, but none really stood out. Fewer opportunities than in previous years, which is worrisome. I’m considering the latest offer - slightly... — read more 

Why You Don’t Want IDSA to Fall…

All-Employee Engagement Survey (July 2025)

I am not sure what to fill or feel, are they tracking who filled in what? Do they care what is really our opinion? When you are filling in , are you bring absolutely brutal or cautious??

No true leaders left at Nike

I’ve had solid leaders in the past who earned our respect and made hard decisions with integrity. What we have now are people with titles and absolutely no clue how to lead. They manage spreadsheets, not people. Calling them leaders feels like an... — read more

CFO to be let go friday

finally, EH has come to his senses and realizing that this guy is not cutting it. There is no strong, competent leadership with MF. This is what happens when you follow the peter principle. Welcome ES to take his place!

More layoffs Friday

More layoffs coming Friday. Are you prepared? Are you ok with it being you and enjoying the rest of summer or are you concerned about looking for another job in this current environment?

Maybe Nike game is old now

Nike had bread and butter formula. Give me public athletic shoes with good looking style with celebrity endorsees with stories tied behind them. Maybe those day is over. Maybe public wants simple casual/athletic style. For crying out loud, we... — read more

If working here makes you so miserable, I really think many of you should start looking for a new job. This is not me being hateful. It's just that I don't think that much bitterness and hatred is healthy. None of us like this job or Nike all that... — read more
