Reality check

The reality is that T has far more FTEs than the other guys. I totally get the need from an operating expense perspective to reduce headcount but the reality is the work still needs to get done. Having said, that contractors will be where the work ends up so there are still jobs out there, probably working for a company with a less toxic environment.


RTO rumors were a distraction

A commenter alluded to it in a post: while we fussed over RTO rumors the bank is finalizing the details to hire 5000 FTEs in India. Remember this is a place that kept wages flat and laid off people ruthlessly for "operational efficiency" but has no problem committing to sending thousands of jobs out of the country.


ETW End-of-Contract

I just learned that my contract won't be renewed. I'm really bummed...I haven't even been at Nike that long. It is truly a great place to be...hopefully I can pivot or come back. I can tell that even the FTEs in my group are nervous that they are next. Anyway...just thought I would post here to give people a heads-up that budget conversations seem like they are happening, and affecting at least some people.


Confirmed FTE's on 1/29

Weird timing of the month. It appears that this layoff largely depends on VRP acceptance. They want to start the year by offloading a huge burden.

I've also heard that this is going to be a quarterly event for 2026. Has anybody seen any WARN report for their states? Just wondering if this is small or a huge one


Rumors of Policy Shift: Contractors WFH, FTEs RTO in Colorado

I've been hearing some buzz about a potential change in policy at one of our Colorado offices. From what I've gathered, contractors are being given the green light to work permanently from home, while full-time employees (FTEs) are being asked to come back to the office.

I'm curious if anyone else has heard about this or has more details. It's got me wondering a few things:

Is this actually happening, and is it just in Colorado or across the whole company?

What does this mean for contractors in the long run? Are they going to be phased out or kept on indefinitely because of this work-from-home flexibility or forced to move out to other offices?

For FTEs, what are the implications, especially for those on visas like H-1B or L-1? How does this affect immigration compliance, and are there risks of layoffs, relocations, or forced conversions to contractor status?

If anyone has any insights or personal experiences, especially those in Colorado or who have been through something similar, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
