this is sincere and true - i am sorry you have to go through this and i wish you all the best no matter what you plan to do tomorrow. i've heard so many similar stories and this company is not the same any more, there is some darkness that crept in and i dont know if it'll ever go away. #godspeed #gold
I just got laid off from Nike after 6 years
They told me my role is no longer needed, with my last day in mid October. Two of us are affected, I do not think this is systemic or a part of a larger plan - it's just that they are tweaking things how the group (~20 folks) works - two of us are affected.Yet, surprisingly, I feel relief more than shock... The signs were there... mornings felt heavy, mgrs went quiet, and even teammates I thought had my back started to drift away - it felt bad... The energy was 100% off I knew the call was coming.
It stings. At the same time I’d rather be out than stuck in a job that drained me. Theres a strange peace in knowing it’s official.
Anyone else ever feel like the final cut is easier than the slow buildup?
im gonna go in tomorrow. I’ve got people counting on me, and there’s no room for self-pity right now, i'll finish this chapter with dignity and will do a good job... Time to chase the next chapter, onward & upward.
