So the legal lady comes in to clean up the mess after CG doesn't "do the right thing." But the whole function is worse than ever. What gives? Where is the talent brains and skill in the org spending all this $$$? Are we really going to win this way?

Is it being reset? Or gutted? Nothing makes sense
Why is it so hard to communicate with recruiters?
One of the toughest challenges I've been having is communicating with recruiters for design positions. I feel like the layoff is the only place I can say my frustrations without being ostracized. I know if I were to post about this on linkedin, I... — read more
RPO = Redundant Process Overhead
Is it really the elephant in the room anymore? Is it a value add when you just create extra work to validate your existence and add work to teams that are already understaffed? We all know it’s to validate the existence of SB but this is just... — read more
The problem is lack of vision and long term planning
We lack vision and long term planning. We opt for layoffs because it's the easiest option to free up capital when our stock is going down the drain. We forget that the employees that we let go have context and knowledge domain expertise. By the time... — read more
CISO resigned?
Just heard AS put in his notice, was he pushed out or decided he had enough? Anyone in CIS heard from him? Not super surprising with CIS buried in FAST. What does this mean cybersecurity at Nike?
PSP?!
What’s the chances we actually get a bonus this year? I’m thinking it’s pretty slim, but also hoping for at least the minimum of 25%. Wishful thinking?
AS leaving
It stupid to have security under FTS/FAST to begin with. I don’t get it!…MD and that CIO guy were two of the worst hires in the history of the company. Idk think they know what they were doing. He only did a year then left!…he wanted everything to... — read more
One of the very few good company programs
It must be out of GPS, but I really like the program where we hire people with mental disabilities to clean the kitchens throughout campus. I genuinely think it's nice even though it's not always convenient. But I don't think we've taken this... — read more
The one thing they can't take from you
They can take your time, your energy, and your sanity if you let them. But they can't take your dignity unless you hand it over. When you leave, whether it's your own choice or not, walk out with your head high. Don't give them the satisfaction of... — read more
Rumor: CS to be named next CEO
She’s doing such an incredible job in china that rumor has it she is already being promoted to CEO and will oust EH out of the role! Good riddance eh welcome CS!
Who will be the next CEO?
It’s clear EH isn’t the one. Who will be next? Will it be our goddess and savior CS per chance?

Loved everything about Rip the Script except WTF was Kim doing there?
It should be all about the athletes, and the amazing action sequences, then you got that fat lipped prost---te standing there doing nothing, and they had to repeat her name a bunch of times at the start. She literally made the entire thing into... — read more
What is wrong with Nike?
Besides broken systems, unqualified leadership and performative culture?
Fake JDI Day traditions
What’s up with these events today like they have been a long time tradition? What’s the point of hyping these irrelevant events? What the he-l is a swoosh cup? Is there anything more irrelevant than a Nike Mile? Perhaps they trying to cover up the... — read more
JDI Day = Day Off?
Are people actually going to JDI day or do some people use it as a day off? I really don’t have that much interest in going, and I think my team is kinda doing whatever. Wondering if it’s abnormal to not partake or how people approach JDI day... — read more
Nike should issue eighty times the number of Performance Improvement Plans then handing out layoff notices.
Because 99.9% of the Nike employees that are rightfully issued a Performance Improvement Plan are going to flunk it. Then Nike can fire them rather than issuing a layoff notice then paying unemployment benefits.
Applying for jobs at competitors after being laid off
Hi, Was laid off in the last round (why do I always type layed?). The job market as many know isn’t great, even willing to relocate it’s still tough out there. So in the spirit of considering all my options, what have people seen as “Nike actually... — read more
Nike GT became an Indian company
PHK or ITC, the same culture. We'll see where this takes the company.
PSP
I was laid off last month and wondering if anyone has heard anything about PSP this year and know when we should hear if it’s being paid and what it will look like ?
Engagement Survey Results
So uhhhh…are we not going to talk about this? Results were atrocious. We think anything is going to happen or a lot of hand waving and being told we should appreciate our jobs?
Latest in Tech?
I heard some rumours coming out of CIS

Nike devices policy after resignation - can we buy them
I have a phone that I want to buy. If given a chance, I might also consider buying a MacBook. What is the policy here?
Keeping things simple is typical corporate double talk
If Nike was doing things right then 18 months under EH should have come out with next generation of new designs and new strategy as to how to attack and new story line. Cricket~? Instead from EH all we hear same old recycled corporate restructure... — read more

When do you receive your severance ?
Barrons: Has Nike Lost It's Superpowers
Nike's turnaround effort has not been a quick pivot, to borrow a basketball term. It has been more like a wobbly slide on a dusty gym floor. The stock price peaked at over $170 in late 2021. It was down to $79 in October 2024, when company lifer... — read more
It's soon going to be musical chairs at Nike. When the music stops a lot of you are going to be without a chair. Knowing that the smartest thing
you should do NOW is bag your Nike job. Give your manager an hour's notice that you are resigning from your job at the end of the day. Let's say you normally get off work at 5 pm. So, you should tell, email or call your manager at 4 pm and say Adios!... — read more

DI-K'S CLOSING 175 CHAMPS AND 400 FOOTLOCKER STORES BY END OF THIS YEAR
That is awful news for Nike because after collapse of DTC, Nike needs more doors than ever before!!! There are no new stores coming down the pipeline and existing ones are going down the pipe. I guess that is when you say Nike is stuck in a rock and... — read more
Nike Full of Two-Faced People and Leaders
I’ve come to realize how much worse things have become here following the recent layoffs and changes. People are incredibly deceitful and backstabbing, praising others one moment and then criticizing them in the next meeting to gain favor or serve... — read more
Brand meeting, PHK dedication and inspiring message from the man himself
Cool inspiring events last couple of days. A window to what the best of Nike is all about. And what's possible. Serena was freaking awesome. Authentic, empowered and empowering... she's the GOAT alright. Wanted to note some positivity going into... — read more
The comeback cannot just be a message from the top. It has to show up in how people are treated.
Nike is in the middle of Founder’s Week and JDI Day is right around the corner. Now leadership wants to talk about inflection points, comebacks, legacy, courage, effort, and getting back to what made Nike great. I get the history. I get the speech. I... — read more
PK to the team
Strong story doesn't save companies. Strong work do! I like that and He's correct—companies survive on output, not narrative. But that's a principle for stable times. When the house is already on fire, "just keep working hard" starts to sound... — read more
World Cup Nike vs Adi
Just watched an emotional video for the curaçao by Adi and then checked what we have and it’s photos of current / former players and different artists / celebrities . Really hope more is coming - this just feels sad 3 weeks before the start
