@mv a coffee cup full of bourbon and people forget things. Hard to keep up with who knows what, when or where.
@qy the morale won’t improve until we have leaders with less ego and more integrity. I would focus on what you can control. Start applying for jobs now. The odds of finding something else are greater than expecting anything from leadership.
The Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves.
@mv if you think I’m the problem - you might be the reason. When the facts don’t lie but you do. The truth has a funny way of catching up to people. If telling the truth makes me wrong then I rest well at night being right.
@m1 oh my sweet summer child...
Keep documented details about what’s happening. Report the issue through the documented speak up portal and if Nike doesn’t do anything about it then file a claim with the EEOC. Take a leave of absence if the misconduct continues because workplace trauma is real and you have to take care of yourself. Until more people start standing up for themselves nothing will change. HR and Legal are part of the same Org. Lock step. Don’t forget that. The fear of retaliation is real. HR doesn’t care about you and neither do any of your co workers. Look out for yourself but do the right thing and report it. If you don’t report it then you are part of the problem. If you think this post is about you then you might be guilty. When you decide to leave because it doesn’t get better then share all of your documentation. You have no obligation to keep someone else’s secret a secret. If it happened and it’s unethical you need to report it. Be part of the solution!
I was bullied by a manager until I was fired. No one did anything about it despite my complaints to HR.
- looks at mountains of legal cases, disgruntled employees leaking trade secrets en masse and a demoralized workforce ready to revolt at any point*
Good job!
Is it better to be feared or loved? Both if you can. If you have to pick between the two, it is always better to be feared than loved... but the prince should always be careful and should prevent being hated at all costs.
Leadership through Nike HR broke the ancient rule with its hubris and impunity. HR are just corpo cops. treat them like you treat cops. they exist to absorb the hate and blame so those emotions arent directed towards the prince.
Nike HR is world class trash.. I hope you are watching this Nike HR
On one hand I understand the thought of going to HR about issues in corporate america.
But honestly and it's very sad... you usually are better off not.
Sorry.
Two things here: your manage is probably doing what they were told to do and HR is always going to protect the company. You are on your own.
Remember HR works to protect the company from you. lol
I feel that way too
