Paid resume services
Has anyone tried any of the paid services that help with resumes? Did it make a difference? I’m getting a bit discouraged after not getting any callbacks, so I’m thinking I might need some professional help. But I don’t want to waste my money if it’s... — read more
Bye Claire
Great run, but paying millions to an exec to provide jobs at Nike for retired athletes should be a non profit. Can we please keep cutting millions in salaries for long term high execs that are not contributing to growth and get the stock up so those... — read more
promotion or lateral movement?
So in 2025 the following will happen: The long awaited termination of APLA will occurr and CS will be "promoted" to the president of direct to consumer whilst MBL will be locked out of her position and will return to Old Navy as their CHIEF... — read more
Such A Bummer
Yes, EH will be great but tough to look at stock in the 70’s and bear tough financial reports for the foreseeable future. Electing JD to lead for so long and taking our focus off product was such a huge impactful mistake. Our stock should have split... — read more
Ecstatic about any chance to avoid work
I'm looking forward to the extra few days off we'll get this week way too much. It almost feels like a lifeline. I'm trying to figure out when the work turned from a moderately enjoyable experience into a total clusterfu-k that is destroying my... — read more
APLA will cease operations in 2025
By the end of Q1 ... CS will finally depart! New geos APAC AMERICAS EMEIA HON will also step down after CS leaves
Where is APLA
Not a single APLA country or city in the Win Now plan… It’s all NA, EMEA, and GC. Serious FOMO
holiday end of year = lack of inclusive leadership
End of year all hands meetings exposes Nike as culture vultures. a see of sameness in leadership roles presenting marketing and design visions to reach diverse consumer segments. The company says sport and consumer first. this isn't about DEI, its... — read more
Hey BoD. You should all resign.
If you voted for JD to take the helm and let him last for 5 years, after passing up EH. Resign. Let the change be good for you. Let's go!
What are the chances we will have reorg/layoffs in the beginning of 2025?
I’m hearing different schools of thought. The one that makes most sense to me is that reorg and layoffs will come later, after we somewhat consolidate with a new/old guy at the top. But you can never be sure. It all depends on how well we will do... — read more
Time to Dump Converse
With a focus on sports, isn’t it time to dump Converse. Revenues continue to decline, with a year-over-year change of -17.3%.
RTO trolls
Where yall at crickets
Every time I read MF, it does not remind me of the CFO, but a slang
Not sure if its only me because my mind is polluted. But did it happen to anyone else too?
Chill with the touching on stage
I don't know, put your hands in your pockets, maybe?
MF please STFU
Read the room and cede the mic to EH
BIG REVEAL DAY - Popcorn or chips and salsa
I’m leaning towards popcorn since this will be two hours of the Q2 report, mostly likely followed by more internal details of the EH big plan Chips and salsa might be tastier, but I don’t think I could eat that for two hours. I feel for the roller... — read more
Earnings report will be unpleasant surprise bcs we are in a bad shape
The market is expecting a pretty good earnings report. I think they are in for a surprise. I don’t think people on the outside realize how much of a sh-t show the layoff was and how much productivity was lost. Company morale and productivity was at... — read more
Early retirement packages
I heard a rumor that in the next year Nike will be putting together early retirement packages and anyone over the age of 55 will be able to volunteer. Anyone know if there is any substance behind this rumor?
Any ideas on how bad the next reorg will be?
I'm getting a bit tired of all the reshuffling and layoffs.
Trust in leadership is gone
It’s hard to see any faith left in the people running Nike. Their choices keep leading us into bigger problems, and it feels like there’s no way out as long as they’re in charge. Confidence is crumbling company-wide, and the situation only gets worse... — read more
Anyone a little skeptical of their reason to condense this week's meetings?
It's not like anyone's schedules got busier in the 2 days between inviting us and then cancelling. I also heard there was a VP meeting that got cancelled, with the same stated reason. It's weird, right? Maybe something shifted about the business over... — read more
Layoff announcement after Q2 Earnings?
What’s the over/under on layoffs being announced at the rescheduled Team Meeting set for Dec 19? I’m guessing they will announce a reorg in the earnings call and then address the rank and file same day. If that’s the case, top marks to EH for... — read more
Tech at Nike has to be..
the most toxic org given all the passive aggressive posts that I see on here every time I log on. Lol, a casual observer would think our marketing, supply chain or finance orgs are all hunky-dory (they are not.. sidebar, DTC failed because our... — read more
The circle of life at Nike
New leader Will redo strategy Will exit a few on their leadership team Employees will rejoice at exits Employees will believe new leader is a messiah Leaders will be rotated based on loyalty to new regime RIF’s Employee will troll Rinse &... — read more
Just surviving, not really working
Survived one round of layoffs just to anticipate the next. Do you even remember when there were good times after the bad? When there was something at work to look forward to? When there was a sense of moving forward? We are just surviving now... — read more
Example
As a woman, I always thought that I could look up to HON as an inspiration. But the more that I see her operate in her climb to the top, the more sad I get. She is shallow, hypocritical, and cares deeply what people think about her, not doing what’s... — read more
REORG 2025
Big news dropping at next week’s all company meeting. Going back to category baby!! Org and building shifts coming too. None of these changes really matter except for the VPs egos. Nike will continue to stumble forward and be reactive to the market... — read more
IDSA = skibidi t
What a mess.
SEC down again
What a clown 🤡 show. What is ACN being paid for?
No real change in sight
And nobody seems to be working on it. I guess rot went too deep for Nike to ever come back.
I was so wrong
I was excited when I first got this job, thinking it could be the start of something lasting. But over time, many people made it clear that I shouldn’t expect a long-term future at Nike. I didn’t believe them at first. To me, this was the kind of... — read more
Seating in JR worse than ever
Not enough seats. Most people I know need and want a home base desk. Orgs are growing and shrinking but there is refusal to move groups based on size changes. Groups have claimed flex desks. Groups have claimed areas not assigned to them so they can... — read more
It wasn’t just JD
It’s becoming more and more clear that Nike’s problems weren’t just about JD. If this company’s gonna get back on track, there need to be big changes in leadership across a bunch of layers. Too many so-called “leaders” right now are more focused on... — read more
Who else is being told RTO5 coming Jan?
Not that I want it, just what I’m hearing. Is this real or rumor?
COBM Ops All-Hands
When you have a member of the brand-spanking new Culture Champions team look up and use the Merriam-Webster definitions of “partner” and “operations” to explain their approach to the work, you know we’ve hit a new low. When you have a gym bro... — read more
Nike Shuts Down Virtual Sneaker Brand RTFKT
Another billion plus thrown away! Plus a lot of resources used for nothing or very little to show for. Such a waste.
Principal, Workday Reporting & Security Process Owner - Remote Work Option
I saw this job posted. What happened to RTO? It seems HR never has a problem getting remote approval for themselves, what a coincidence
