I wish one of these big law firms would go after them and teach them and the employment law team a lesson. People speak up and next thing you know they are managed out, fired or laid off. I just learned about a former colleague who was terminated... — read more 

Anyone else get notified their noncompete is being enforced? Saying I have to tell them where I take a job. Realize they are just about unenforceable but WTH?

By way of explaining why the last few years have focused on AF1/AJ1/Dunk (and not new innovation), JD is quoted in Fast Company as saying: “We don’t apologize for exploiting sneaker culture”. I’m not a JD hater (I tend to think that the hate he... — read more 

I have seen this a few times this week… not to mention it’s always HR ppl getting promoted. Now might not be the best time to brag about your new promotion at Nike while every other post is someone being laid off. Glad they could shift that budget... — read more 

Besides the factors which we blame in our earnings call such as lack of innovation, cutting off too many wholesale partners, macroeconomy… I’m curious to hear what you think may be contributing which hasn’t gathered as much public attention. Prefer... — read more 

Sat in my second AM LT meeting in two weeks, a waste of time. AM leads of with making fun of her last name and how it is pronounced which coincidently is a hot topic of a recent last name sc--w up by LT. It is disrespectful how LT thinks it is... — read more

Every day the transition changes, the communication is terrible. Learned one of our APD VPs has a history of badgering employees behind closed doors. She already wore one director out last year, fired another in the reorg, now shes picking new... — read more 

Lot of people with fancy words in their job titles. Strategy, transformation, modernization. What are their deliverables, other than attending meetings.

Trying to sell sunglasses where burritos used to be is weird and embarrassing. It looks so cheap.

Yeah this is your problem. TAKE OWNERSHIP in your layoff. Ask yourself. ''What was my role in this?!'' OR do you just want to be a victim? I mean ... Your choice!!!

Seems like a bunch of glorified project managers Also lots of “Karen” energy in the leadership ranks. What do they even do ?

Found this telling on so many levels…..from Fast Company (you’d think she’d swoosh up for an interview at the very least.) “Heidi O’Neill, the company’s president of consumer, product, and brand, sits in front of a window, seven stories high in... — read more 

Anyone else considering this before signing?

Strategy. John destroyed the category offense and that was our foundation of growth rooted in sport. Crippling move…. CDA was the worst pivot = negative net growth.

Lost 4 team members! Their work load became my work load! Lol 😆 I have not had a chance to eat lunch during the day since we are back from layoffs!

It'll be fine OR unemployment is really easy to get and super generos so don't worry ge-z... you know you're a - secretly happy you got laid off b - your role was probably pointnless c - nothing matters there d - idk just get over it! Yeah my... — read more 

Does Nike offer any retirement incentives? What are the requirements for eligibility? Searching the HR website and coming up with nothing. I recall there used to be some kind of point system for “Gold Badge” status, is that at all related? Been here... — read more 

Shouldn’t it be next week? I don’t see anything online yet.

Do kids care? Maybe a better question - who is our consumer in 2024?

There was a thread making completely sensible and respectful criticisms of Nike’s implementation of DEI which was removed. What the fu-k??? It had like a net +20 upvotes.

For us who are laid off week of Apr 22, when can we expect our severance payout? Do we have to pay for Cobra? Thanks!

The aftermath of these RIFs is that all the nice people are gone and the gossiping has gone from 2 to 11 on a dial that stops at 10. Everyone is trying to dig dirt on everyone so that they don't get cut. People throwing each other under the bus left... — read more 

Half my team is gone, and I still have no clue what or where I'll be working in the future, no manager, etc. We're just chugging along, doing the same work with paid external people now taking the place and work of the people who were let go. When... — read more 

Heard my first whisper of no performance raises this year. Apparently they didn't give them after the last big layoffs. &@?!$&!

It used to be a point of pride. Now it's a point of shame.

JD & MM, zoom isn’t the culprit, RTO isn’t the answer. Psychological safety is the key to innovation. Nike’s culture is toxic and Retaliatory. There is so much fear and distrust, how can we innovate? Please create an environment where everyone feels... — read more 

first thing they do after layoff is spending money

How is JD still employed? Stock price is the metric by which ceos are measured. Well the stock is flat over five years and down 50 percent off the five year high. Would you keep a fund manager makes no gains when there is 4-5 percent inflation per... — read more

if you make it 5 years. NIKE makes it impossible with lay offs every 3 to 4 years.
