What does this mean for the employees? More importantly CS?

Is he crying because there's no saving us?

The main problem with Nike as a company
Is that it’s essentially privately owned by PK and his family. And operated with archaic rules that wouldn’t hold in any regular corporation. So regardless of all of us shareholders voting, the BOD ultimately executes what PK wants. Are you all not... — read more
