Leadership: "I know as much as you do." Stress levels are high, and leaders are trying to refocus the TD and Design teams on potential org shifts, but say nothing about the layoffs. Does anyone know if cuts will happen in those groups?

We might get a week or two reprieve, maybe even a month, if we're lucky, but we will never again be safe. The floodgate has been opened and there is no closing it. This management only knows how to improve the numbers by cutting costs - which equates... — read more

Anyone else surprised to see multiple new VP positions created while we lay off the people actually doing the work just in time for Christmas? #leadership

too much bloat, too many years of inflated performance ratings while doing mediocre work, too much product, too little innovation… it’s too much. For the remaining, it’s half time.. ask your self… does my work add value, if the honest answer isn’t a... — read more

It’s gross. Letting people go right before the holidays in these rolling layoffs. Keeping leaders that don’t belong that are ki-ling whatever is left of what was once a great place to work and cutting people who actually cared about their teams... — read more 

There's no reason why they couldn't have done this all in one day. Letting it drag out like this only causes more unnecessary stress to employees. Even when it comes to layoffs, you can see the difference between good and bad management in the way it... — read more 

Will there be more cuts on Thursday? Is there any way to know?

We had a meeting with a VP and he said that each department needed to hit a target( I assume in terms of cutting cost) and that is how lay offs were decided. Honestly looking at those who were let go, I am so confused how these names are being... — read more

Let them lay me off. They'll be doing me a favor. I can't imagine other companies being worse and/or having a worse and more toxic culture than Nike. If I was brave enough, I would have quit by now. Since I'm not, I realized that being laid off is... — read more 

Nike has an active audience here and in the last few months it’s more active. How has the news not caught on? We all know how Nike has been run to the ground but it’s been kept quiet. We hear of other work establishment in the news. Who’s butt is... — read more 

Nike really keep us in the dark! I learnt about layoffs and those were laid off from this site not from communication with my director... Let's create a community and be transparent. If you are laid off today, please just drop a comment.... Any lay... — read more 

What's the average age of laid off employees this time around? Usually, it's a lot of 50-somethings and above and a few 20-somethings added to make it seem like there's no age discrimination going on. I don't know many who were affected so far so I... — read more 

We were told there will be more layoffs through this week and next week and first week of January. Also heard they started with Sr dir and work their way to lower levels and finally ETWs. We were also told company has opened positions for hiring and... — read more 

Is this JD’s new strategy? And during the holidays? Why? Why are people that depend on Nike gettin fired because his sh---y strategy and hires? Why he still here?

Will there be more layoffs tomorrow? Some people are saying that layoffs will last Tuesday through Friday and others are saying Tuesday and Friday so I'm not sure what to expect tomorrow.

Does anyone know what is happening? Heard some in digital and stores already but more coming. What is the strategy here other then making teams scared and unproductive by dragging on for weeks?

I'm always worried they'll stealthily try to reduce severance.

I'm shocked they didn't wait until December 24. We have sadistic leadership, apparently, so it wouldn't come as a surprise.

What an unfortunate time to choose to do something like this. Just goes to show how little those at the top care about employees and how something like this can affect our families.

How many will be laid off? What will be hit? Anything other than just there'll be layoffs tomorrow?

Why did senior management hire so many people when it was clear economy was slowing? Could have avoided layoffs.

Rumor has been there is a reorg this week. Anyone have any information on who will be impacted? When the announcements will come?

The Nike that once was, hasn't existed for years and likely won't come back. Face reality and make your decision. Most of you are not in charge nor can influence any decisions. Accept, lead or leave. JD isn't the only voice here. He's the figure... — read more
