Great team. Good vibe. Getting things done.

If leadership actually conducted an anonymous survey about retention risks right now, the results would terrify them. In my department alone, I know of at least five high-performers who've been actively interviewing for months. People aren't just... — read more 

If you know, please share … let’s get a tracker going:

I'm so tired of working until midnight to fix leadership’s last-minute "urgent" request with all the recognition coming in a way of a Slack thumbs-up. Yeah, real meaningful. Maybe if recognition wasn’t a godda-n afterthought, people wouldn’t be... — read more

Everyday in this organization is getting worse and leadership is concerned with saving itself only.

The problem with DEI at Nike isn’t the bad wrap it’s gotten from folks who like to blame DEI for everything. It’s that there are a couple of truly two-faced long-standing people on the team that have toxic attitudes and have made it impossible for... — read more 

Since the end of June has passed and we're now officially under new reporting lines in Workday, has anyone actually been given any clarity on what you'll be working on, with which teams, etc? I've basically been just hanging out for the past week or... — read more 

Lots of murmurs that managers are trying to bend the rules on this & pressure people into office at random times. Remember that you can't be formally disciplined or actioned for not showing up in-person if your working agreement is remote. Imagine... — read more 

Are moves happening all week or is it just Mondays? Do we know when this will all shake out or are we just going with the flow here?

Between that and “The people is what make Nike” is what they love to say YET they somehow haven’t realized those people are gone due to layoffs or left because of how bad it is. Very few people that work for the brand now actually know and embody... — read more 

I know I am. I’m done giving Nike more chances. I’ve been treading water here for two years - working hard, but accomplishing nothing meaningful. At this point, I think it’s smarter to leave before having Nike on your resume turns from an asset into... — read more 

The irony of the layoffs is that those left are even more overworked and unhappy. While those that were laid off enjoyed a paid summer vacation. Being in a stressful job environment makes life very challenging and can drastically impact your health... — read more 

Just curious. Does Nike still instruct employees to refrain from posting controversial and/or political opinions on social media? One of my former coworkers is constantly (several times per day) posting partisan material on her socials and I can’t... — read more 

Great brand, seemingly stable industry, clear career paths. Today, I can honestly say it's the worst professional decision I've ever made. Despite consistently top-tier reviews and taking on responsibilities two levels above my pay grade, I've been... — read more 

Find a job and happier since leaving Nike?

I was let go last year, and after 12 months all shows that JDs and his leadership’s led reorganisation was exactly as it looked: improvised, misinformed, led by leaders and consultants that had no idea how the company run. In my team they let go... — read more 

Nothing is ever going to improve. I can’t focus on my work anymore with the constant cuts, reorganizations, and the never-ending state of mismanaged chaos. It might be tolerable if this were just a transitional phase leading to something better, but... — read more 

I heard some big news about APLA and a huge restructure involving CS being moved roles. Do we know what's going on here? Thanks.

My gut tells me yes.

Every time I ask my manager anything... The response is: ¯_(ツ)_/¯

DSG’s there! I can see On as well. https://time.com/7297630/time-reveals-the-2025-time100-most-influential-companies-in-the-world/

Nike's layoffs are like getting fired from a toxic relationship. It hurts at first, then you realize you’re free. The only ones crying are the deadwood who’ve been coasting for years. Pro tip: severance + a new job = upgrade.

Kind of sounds like layoffs to me, which makes me wonder if a major round is on the way.

Nike stock surged as much as 16% on Friday, capping off the sportswear giant’s best trading day in years, after CEO Elliott Hill reassured investors that the company’s turnaround strategy is finally starting to show... — read more 

Word is there are layoffs happening today, any truth to that?

stock went up by 10 percent! Because we deliver such great news? or just shorts covering after having a great slide down. If I knew, I would not be in this site LOL But Nike is human labor intensive company!! Layoff and going bare bones will... — read more 

I’m seriously not a ra-ra person. I hate that sh-t. But i think he’s gonna lead the turnaround. Laying out the bad news. Not taking a bonus. But pointing to a legit path back. Maybe I’m a su---r, but I believe.

Does anyone know when would EMEA tech will be told about the apparent lay-offs? As EMEA is on different timeline!

How many would completely fall apart if even one more person gets laid off? They act like they can keep cutting forever, but eventually it’s going to catch up to them. Things will stop getting done, and no amount of spin will cover that up.

Still missed one there. We're waiting.

Companies cut jobs when profits soar, so there's more left to share at the top. And when profits fall? They still cut, so there's still something to share at the top. If you're an employee without equity, you're not part of any profit-sharing... — read more

I want to see Faith run, not a bunch of hype. And the stadium is mostly empty, stop comparing it to a Beyoncé concert. Who’s in charge of this thing?

Does anybody know what's happening with that?
