I understand that no job is ideal, but when a growing number of your employees are being put on anxiety and blood pressure medications, then you have to know what you're doing is fu---d up in more ways than one. Working at Nike has become a health hazard, and I mean that literally.

I got prescribed teeth guards recently while sleep, for new grinding/ clenching issues that I have recently developed from all the events. Horrible horrible toxic leadership. Also how much do we overcompensate for all the short fall in a mo--nic CEO? I get a feeling upcoming qtrs financial numbers are gonna su-k. Nike. Com has so many bugs, which is gonna drop sales like a rock.
If JD isn’t thrown out, we are going under.
The decision maker who announced the layoffs prior to them happening has no idea what they’re doing. Why would anyone be motivated to work hard while possibly on the chopping block?
Its absolutely true. I just got put on medication for stress and not sleeping caused from a toxic work environment
Can confirm. I’m a very healthy and active person but I’ve been diagnosed with two life-altering conditions in the four years I’ve been at nike. My doctor noted that both were likely triggered by the stress from my “abusive work environment.”
We’re all operating out of fear. Not just because of layoffs, but because leadership has conditioned us to think that we can’t say no to them, despite operational feasibility concerns due to tight timelines or under-resourcing. Do or die trying. Don’t let it be the latter though, failure isn’t an option. And no matter how overwhelmed you are, don’t forget to smile. We should all be grateful, remember?
Our CEO’s bonus should be partially tied to average employee weight, specifically whether it’s going up or down.
I know I’m not alone picking up the JD 10lbs.
This is the least athletic our company has ever been. Least profitable too.
There are a few people I work with who are ticking time bo--s for heart attacks. Out of shape, work crazy hours, and of course all the recent stress of the job. It’s hard to watch.
Jd, mm, pk, ho, and etc do not give a §hit about you or your health. Never have and never will. You exist to make them money.
