Thread regarding Nike Inc. layoffs

I’m just sad

I’m sad for you. I’m sad for me. I’m sad for my team. This just doesn’t feel like Nike. I love everyone on my team and I love everyone here at Nike. I’m so happy to be here and I hope everyone stays safe. My gut tells me I’m gone, and I’ll find another job, but wow do I love working here. I’m pretty fu--ing sad as most of you are, this has been a brutal four months being away from home and family. I really wish this sh-t was handled better, I don’t know how it got so messy. I hope these decisions make Nike a better a Nike. I’ll take my severance and this new taylor album though :) take it on the chin

It is sad. Feel all the feelings. I was part of the ~700 laid off in 2017 as part of CDO. It su-ked. I love Nike and loved my teammates. I still want to come back (man, what does that say about me??!!). However, I survived and thrived! You will, too. I got a job that I love. But feel all your feelings! It will be okay...

Impacted in Phase I. The anxiety around not knowing who was being impacted and how it was going down was significantly worse than the actual event.

I feel for you all as this completely su-ks and there really isn’t any rhyme or reason as to why one person vs another.

I do, however, know that I’m less stressed and you all will be too.

Hang in there.

The problem is this is Nike, young grasshopper. You thought it was something it’s not and that’s what’s making you sad. Accept it for what it is and you’ll feel better.
