I was hoping to be let go. Feeling so depressed to still be here. My already insecure, neurotic Dir who can't let anyone else shine has a new boss. This will kick the craziness and pressure into overdrive. Push, push, push. Micromanage... — read more 

This reorg bestowed upon us some head scratcher people moves. Maybe it’s just my function but it’s almost like people are being pushed to leave by being put in groups where they have don’t fit in or set up to fail by being given jobs beyond their... — read more 

If you were moved to another team or demoted JD wants you to leave, rent free. This saves him $200k on average/employee on severance costs. JD bets roughly 25% of you in this camp leave and Bain smiles to the bank. Reality. Do you make him happy... — read more 

Not my story but just saw the post in Linkedin. Seriously Nike? this person should get a medal and maybe a building in her name, not a Zoom Call to end a career. We can do better. Hopefully, sooner than later, true leadership will make things right... — read more 

I cannot believe the millions of dollars we pay for idiocy and paper pushers. It could have saved many FTEs from Nike had the consultants got chopped down. There are probably 10-15 good consultants in that cesspool of over 1000. Zero knowledge, zero... — read more 

Not only was there the “you’re getting a demotion and/or moving to a new team—take it or leave it” (although at least they provided severance if you took option B) New twist: “Hey employee, we.re going to lay you off in a few months, but feel free... — read more 

I did a quick search on the HR site but no article comes up detailing what percentage they would pay out and how much tax I would owe. This is assuming I stay on on board with intention to leave before Sept.

New Geo structure will be as follows: NA (Beaverton) EMEA (Hilversum) APAC (Shanghai and Seoul) LATAM (Mexico City)

Had this course one year after I got hired, it was good, would be very beneficial if I did it when first on boarded, for someone didn’t come from shoes and apparel industry, I struggled so much in the beginning. With that said, I found it... — read more 

Is anyone having the hardest time getting their reimbursement back after being laid off? It's been over a month now trying to get my money back and they keep saying my claims were cancelled and to talk to Nike Care claims. So frustrating.

After being let go, it dawned on me that I have cared less about NIKE clothing/shoes post high school. I was just buying gear and shoes because I got the discount. As an elder millennial, I actually rarely see anyone my age wear NIKE outside of a... — read more 

The lack of representation in leadership is astounding. Then again, it’s Nike — the leader in virtue signaling.

I’m an ETW and have received no guidance or communication about this week or moving forward. My team was annihilated in round 1 and I’m still waiting on guidance regarding that. Do I show up Monday and just pretend to work like nothing ever... — read more 

SAY SOMETHING REAL. Your people don’t trust you or this company anymore. WE NEED LEADERS. Wearing all black on Monday.

4days since I’m let go, it’s been a very emotional few days. Although I do know we will all be forgotten by Monday, and life goes on for those who left and those who stayed. I do wish best of luck to my former team, they were awesome even though the... — read more

We all know it's coming. I'm just wondering how long it will take before they announce it. I'm hoping we'll get at least a good six months to recover from this last disaster but I know that's most likely just wishful thinking. I wish the job market... — read more 

Does severance get paid in multiple chunks? I’m missing a significant amount of my notice pay portion and wondering if it’s a mistake or I need to call People Solutions.

Does it reach the DEI metrics for women and minorities in leadership that JD proclaimed when he took the job? How many layoffs needed?

There is no furture here. If you haven’t been sc--wed over yet, you will be eventually. Get out while you can! I speak from many years of experience.

My manager has been around 10+ years and seems a lot of his coworkers or peers were let go but he survived. Anyway, his behavior has changed a lot! Like he is on something! He has suddenly started being super active, initiating lots of new projects... — read more

what are the chances of being rehired a few months or years down the line after being laid off? anyone been back after CDA or layoffs prior?

First of all I want to express my condolences and empathy for those let go. Whether or not the company is a great place to work, it was their employment. I hope they find better opportunities. Second, and to my point, what ever happened to the "Do... — read more

Nike was a great workplace once upon a time. Today it's a sh-t company with incompetent management, subpar products that are mostly copies of old ones, and no leadership. Nobody should strive to stay here long term. If things are this bad right now... — read more

In layman's terms, can anyone who is tenured here explain what the non-compete agreement says? I get the KIT stuff, but if you are thinking about leaving Nike, are there any issues with working at competitor companies?

If you talked to someone that has cracked JD, he will tell you that he blames his poor experience as CEO, on Covid. He also begrudges longtime Nike employees and says they infected the newer employees with their wining. The old employees speak up... — read more 

do we actually know if who was selected to be laid off really random? I know it's not performance based. I honestly think it might have been cost based as I'm probably one of the higher paid people in my role and got RIF'd.

You’re the next contestant on Who’s Employed!

Got the email. Got the Box link. Not seeing the equipment return list / process doc that is referenced. Has anyone else (among my laid off colleagues) received the list yet? (Should I wait patiently or reach out to the People Solutions?)

Phase 3 may occur if not enough people leave on their own in Q4 or FY25 Q1. If you’re considering leaving, please leave so a phase 3 doesn’t have to happen.
