4-1 only for some?

We have people on our team that never come in despite the new policy. Managers don’t blink an eye at them but for others they watch our time in office. Anyone else experiencing this?

Core hours?

My manager let the team know that starting next week they’ll be implementing core working hours. I’ve always worked 7-3 because it works best with kid drop off/pick up but am now being told I have to be in the office until 4pm no matter what time I... — read more 

VP Summit next week

VP Summit early next week … highly unlikely, but it would be awesome if they took this as the opportunity to cull the herd and start the rest of the layoffs … We need this to be over, no one wins from prolonging this process.

Take a minute and look at yourself in the mirror

Where were you 10 years ago? Mentally, healthy and in control of your life? What matters to you most? Family? Money? These are the things everyone should think about. What matters to you most? Stop bashing each other and focus on what you can or... — read more

What about TPM organization?

What’s the real purpose AMV is driving towards? All she does is driving Techinical Product Managers towards creating a bunch of artifacts. Is there any real value generated or purpose from this organization? One of the most ineffective leadership and... — read more 

Supply Chain Cuts Deep

Too many cute moves for Venkatesh means the road is over for many who climbed the fake ladder he built. Manufacturing excellence is gone while infrastructure and analytics costs are too high. 20% reduction in headcount on the way, ouch!

Commute

The commute to and from work is horrendous.

#1 you are first

#2 - update your resume and start applying; you can always decline #3 - don’t ever give up

Wake up people

This is a true corporation now. It’s not the Nike you knew. Get your resume together and apply, apply and apply. Don’t ever give up. It’s a tough market, but it will turn around. Network. All hands together; we will see this through. God Bless — read more

Bare Minimum

Nike is getting bare minimum from most of us since the announcement. The reality is that most won’t get laid off but the lingering wait makes everyone burn out, drive in, swipe badge and leave. Once layoffs are done, there will be no motivation and... — read more

This is so tiring

When was the last time we went more than a year without layoffs? In fact, I think it's been a while since we went even just six months without cuts. Is laying off folks really the only brilliant idea the leadership can think of to boost profits?... — read more

I'm worried about finding a new job if I'm laid off

I've been talking with an acquaintance who was laid off six months ago (not from Nike), and he's still on the job hunt. He mentioned receiving a couple of offers, but the pay was way less than what he used to be paid, so he turned them down. He and I... — read more

CEO bad decisions result in everyone else suffering

Lay offs to multi millionaire CEO's and VP's may not seem a big deal... as no matter how they perform, they always get a huge payout and another role. Nike's current performance is largely due to the CEO's poor strategy (CDA / CDO) and has resulted... — read more

Are Director Titles getting targeted?

Do you all think inflated titles such as Directors may see more house cleaning than other roles? My org is full of inflated director roles where managers can easily report to Sr. Director.

It's about keeping the cheapest players

It's not about keeping the best players. It's about keeping the cheapest B and C players to do a good enough job to keep the lights on. This isn't about excelling through amazing talent. Nike, like Apple, has transitioned into a churn and burn... — read more

SNKRS isn’t launching product

What happened? There are no launches anymore. I thought launching footwear was important, but maybe now it’s not necessary. Or maybe all the people who knew how to do it are gone?

This is the truth

VPs, SR DIR and Dir in our company are incompetent. They don’t know how to deal with their grade 40s. Most talented people are confused and are not appreciated for their work- they eventually leave. If they try to make any change here, they are being... — read more

Take charge of your life

Why are so many waiting to be laid off instead of taking charge of their lives and finding something better right away?

It's sad how low we have fallen

Nike used to be all about excellence. We used to take pride in that. Now, the highest goal is mediocrity in the service of cost savings. Then the leadership is shocked when the results are not what they were expecting. It would be funny if it wasn't... — read more

When is next board meeting?

Look at the stock. Zero growth since JD assumes CEO position Jan 2020. His cost cutting, consultants, hyperbole, DEI, tech, CDA all have failed. When will the board of directors cut their loss and make needed management change?
