We get what we deserve in failed leadership

@hs clearly you haven’t traveled much. No doubt the current administration is outrageously corrupt by American standards but it doesn’t hold a candle to a place like India. When bribing the police on a regular basis for random shakedowns becomes the norm in this country, then we are getting close.
@d6 you were making sense until the last sentence and you mentioned corruption.
Have you looked at the top leadership in this country? The current WH incumbent and his systematic grifting and free loading has few parallels.
@d6 I think you’re misguiding your anger toward the company, rather than your own fallacy of building your life plan around a corporation, and then being upset when said corporation does what corporations do.
@d6 The concept of having a long career at a single company is disappearing rapidly. The longer you stay the more you cost. Knowledge and experience have far less value and loyalty means nothing. 3-5 years will be the new norm and you will need to move between jobs for pay and responsibility increases. The cycles will be harder as you get older. Look around, how many people over 50 do you see at corporations any more? Even less over 60. Yet we live longer than ever before. Smaller companies are less impacted by the trend but you pay for the stability with less compensation.
I don’t think the majority of people that post here are genuinely racist. We’re just pi---d off that the company is being taken over by a cabal of corrupt, nepotistic a-s kissers from ITC and it’s costing us all our jobs. A lot of us have set deep roots here in Beaverton, moving families, buying a house, etc. with the expectation that NKE is a solid company that takes care of their employees. Sure layoffs are normal in any company, but what is happening right now is a systemic hollowing out of the company from which it will probably never recover. Racisism is just an ignorant side effect of people too pi---d off to think critically and grasp the reality of the situation. It doesn’t help when the people that are replacing you come from one of the most objectively corrupt nations on the planet.
Did have you a stronk?
