It’s a blood bath
Question
Anybody know the official termination date they’re giving? Couple months?
which orgs got invites today?
are exit conversations happening all week?
I was let go today
It’s happening.
I'm quiet quitting from here on
The people we lost...they're some of our best! What's the point in giving it your all if it won't keep you safe?
I got laid off from Nike and thought I was finished
Then I ended up with a better job, better pay, and a much healthier view of work. You’re going to be okay. I’m writing this because a few months ago I was the person doom-scrolling this forum at 2:00 a.m., searching for some stranger to tell me my... — read more
Meetings are starting today (PHK)
Seeing admins and Senior Directors getting their accounts deactivated in real time who are based at PHK... so conversations are definitely happening. Exit convos should go through next Tuesday then org shifts after. Super sad!
No meetings today
No emails, no notable departures, and now most thinking about it into next week. Poorly executed already. At least last year was done the next day. Typical step backwards.
GT RTO?
Seems pretty obvious that the tech center in ATL is going to be shut down this round. But what about other remote roles in GT? Are they over? Most of my team is in NY
Good luck to everyone
However this ends for each and every one of us, I hope it will be over soon.
Can I change my answers to the engagement survey?
Can’t believe we’re doing this again.
INTL up, NKE down
at least 'the other' company in OR is doing well
This is for the best...
For all of you on the chopping block, take the severance package, go on vacation. And then be on the lookout for a job again at Nike. Most likely, your old job will be posted, and with a little bit of luck, you may even get it. The over-hiring hype... — read more
Nike.com is joke
I went to check out the site few times and I cannot stop seeing that all Nike is trying to lead you to item that they have. Not what I am looking for. If I am looking for specific Nike then one would have better luck in amazon. Nike is failing in... — read more
Finally
Someone at the top figured out Nike is not a Tech company.
Wake up as an Ex Nike and seeing 1400 layoffs after months of layoffs already. I feel for my old crew
I am sorry this is happening and leaders like MF should be fired and mid tier manager; that don't know how to manage up and balance.
Get rid of useless departments like Global and WHQ Reselience
Business continuity? The “Nike intelligence center”? Emergency management? Literally millions are being WASTED in payroll and opex with people getting paid to twiddle their thumbs, while people who actually do work are getting decimated.
Fire everyone at Nike making more than 300k
Nike's profit will skyrocket, Guaranteed! Replace all decision makers with a chatbot. No more consultants or consulting companies. Distribute profits to workers and investors.
Why ITC....Again
Doesn't the RAT created so much redundancy there, seriously as usual not much impact to them and they will be celebrating yet again. Can't understand why, just because cheap?
STOP WORRYING. Nike Family, please stop by your local Nike store or the Company store and buy and support Nike sales. We are in WIN NOW mode.
Stop complaining and go buy more Nike product. Stop by the store and support NIKE. WE ARE IN WIN NOW MODE. BE ON THE OFFENSE AND BE A TEAM PLAYER.
Shutdown
They just shutdown manufacturing
1400?
A union would never let this happen
WIN NOW strategy?
typical corporate bull sh-t. Firing staff is winning strategy? What is next? kinder, gentler machine g-n handle? Just say the way it is. We are firing our staff, because we f3cked up but have to blame on someone else otherwise they are going to... — read more
EH should GO
It is about time for regime change. 18 months and all he does is fire people? And not one positive thing came out in 18 months that he has been here preaching positivity.
Just got the email…
…about JDI day. How do they expect us to celebrate when there is nothing worth celebrating over? Especially right after more layoffs.
These layoffs are a sign of bad leadership
First layoff I get it. Oops over-hired. But second and third. No. You can't consistently make mistakes and be competent as a leader.
Consultants
Seriously???? They latch on and never ever leave. We farm out more and more work and all they care about $$$$. What a way to destroy a culture. I honestly think we'll never
Things changed...
So be a yes person and have no opinion of your own? Kiss your bosses a$$, shake your head up and down and get in line? Definitely not a culture or company that I want to be a part of anymore, regardless of what today brings.
Email Contents
Can someone post the full email?
It’s sad how we got to this point
Business is tanking. Products are not inspiring. Leaders are performative
Global Ops at WHQ here
Does this include functions like Change Management, Learning & Development, Portfolio, etc?
Most GT teams to return to normal work by May 03
from the FAQ on WFH mandate
good luck everyone
this is not the end; there’s life outside nike.. whatever happens, stay strong!
WFH email out for GT, starts tomorrow
Looks like it's sooner rather than later
Layoffs stretching on for weeks?
I've heard that rumor one too many times. After all this preparation, couldn't they just rip the bandage off in a day or two? Why leave us hanging for weeks? Haven't we had enough stress already?
