The issue at Nike is bad management. Constant change in direction, shifting sand management style. IT engineers are promoted to leadership without the leadership skills. It is about who you know and not a merit based system.
I saw a manager get promoted to VP in 2 years and he brought his friends up from Engineer to Sr Director when neither of them had any management experience. In that environment, only thing you can do is leave.
Unless you go out with the VP to stripper clubs, you are not going to get ahead. It used to be a great place to work.
