Raises

Does anybody know if the raises will attempt to make up for getting no raises last year?

Changing roles

I'm trying to figure out why would Nike hire people to do a specific thing but then put them in a completely different role that has nothing to do with it. I've seen it happen more than once and each time I could make zero sense of it. I'm not even... — read more 

When is a better time to quit?

I'm thinking about leaving Nike because lack of career growth and mediocre compensation, recently got two offers but still negotiate and continue interviewing. I know RSU vesting is on 9/1, so if I give my two-week notice in late August and have my... — read more 

I am very disappointed

Money, promotion, career progression, feeling valued and appreciated, challenge - what motivates you to keep working here? It seems to me that there are fewer and fewer things that could motivate people to come and stay at Nike. This company has... — read more 

Negative feedback

I'm so tired of constantly getting negative feedback from my manager over things that I have very little control over. Especially when I try to explain this to him and he cuts me off as if I'm trying to give him excuses instead of explain how things... — read more 

medical insurance is a joke as a ETW

My contractor agency has horrible insurance plans. 1) is a low deductible plan which basically covers RX's and some office co-pays. 2) is a high deductible plan which sounds great on paper, as it covers most co-pays and ER visits. I come to find out... — read more 

Quitting Time

Today I quit my job at Nike without another job lined up. Why you may ask? This company is an embarrassment and shouldn’t even be included in the Top 5000 places to work. I’ve watched racism, sexism, ageism, and many other isms take place by various... — read more

Selection process becoming strange

With due respect to everyone and with no intention of sounding arrogant, but I really can’t believe whom Nike hired to replace my colleague who went for greener pastures. I was once younger as well, I had almost no experience but I tried to learn as... — read more 

Nike targeting older workers?

Did they layoff everyone over 45? I’ve been gone for a few years but my LinkedIn feed is a daily parade of former peers who are all now out of jobs. It seems like this has been non stop since last March. It is really unfortunate as the... — read more

For those who need reminding

You are worth so much more than how Nike has been treating you. Managers here like to manage through fear and intimidation, like to try and convince people that this is the best it can get for them so they should just shut up and be grateful for a... — read more 

Work hard or not, it doesn't matter?

It’s amazing to me how hard it is to get Nike to really notice that a person is a high performer. I gave my best for a long time, I tried as hard as I could, and it didn't bring any results. At Nike I had the same status when I worked enough for 3... — read more 

Exodus

Just heard of another senior person in Design moving on and a lot more to come in September and Fall. Nice work JD. An article on just some of the ones who have already made moves (behind a paywall)... — read more 

Some still think they are an important part

Are those that Nike manages to convince that they are an important part of the bigger company mission a bit funny to you too? So did my colleague, thought that he was very important and valued here, until he started wondering why he didn’t get a... — read more 

Quarter one layoffs

Has the unofficial word gone out yet about the quarter 1 layoffs - oops, sorry I meant "re-org". Are the demotions and pay cuts for roles that remain been communicated to those impacted?

Surprising choice of people to cut

I was laid off at the end of last year and looking at the group I was in was surprising. I can be subjective about my own worth but I knew these people and their worth and cutting them made no sense. I've heard about more people being cut since then... — read more 

What can stop a mass departure?

I also don’t believe that a higher pay could stop the mass departure of people that Nike is now facing. It's not all about the money. The best people are leaving. I'm tired of the political mess that Nike has turned into and nothing can stop me... — read more 

Hard times in the past?

The situation is not great. People are leaving. I've been here very short time, but I can already see that I will soon have to look for a new job. My question is for those who know this company much better: has there ever been such a turbulent... — read more 

Things change, deal with it

People here act like Nike is the only place that has changed in the past decade or so. Everything has changed - the world, other companies, even the people you know. Trying to stay in the past has never been good for anybody. We don't have to like... — read more 

Mass Exodus?

In the past few weeks, I have seen numerous posts on LinkedIn from Sr Directors, Directors and Managers announcing their departure from Nike. From the ones I personally know, they are SOLID employees with 5+ years at the company. There have been so... — read more 

I started hating my job here

I’ve always wanted to do the job I do. I thought that at Nike I would have the opportunity to learn a lot more about my job and I considered working here a great challenge that will allow me to grow. Quite the opposite. I almost started so despise my... — read more

What makes the competition better?

I’m trying to make a small list with the comparative advantages and disadvantages of Nike over the biggest competitors. Some things can be learned from the competition, right?

Hiring from within

Has anyone managed to get hired from within, and succeeded due to their hard work, engagement, talents and commitment only - not connections and favoritism? I failed, and when I later found out who started working in that position, I decided to... — read more 

If you are considering Nike for a job, don't!

Stay away. Stay as far away as you can. Do you know what you'll get here if you're good at what you do? A target over your head. Everybody will see you as a threat (which is not far from the truth considering the quality of management here) and will... — read more 

Wrong course?

Maybe I don't understand well enough how to efficiently run a business, but it undoubtedly seems to me that Nike has long since lost its compass and is going in the wrong direction. Some business moves are very disappointing and their effects are yet... — read more 

Resignation...FINALLY

Folks, I have had enough of all the bad apples with whom I work at Nike Tech. I am witnessing a complete lack of communication, lack of accountability, clear favoritism towards "friends" of the hiring managers, backstabbing and gossip, lack of... — read more 

Non-compete agreement

What are the experiences of those who switched to competition after Nike? I would very much like to move to a competing company, although I fear that the legal risks could be more serious than I think. I don't want to stay here anymore and... — read more 

Expectations and reality

I would like to hear what were your expectations from Nike when you were just looking for a job here and how did things turn out for you? I was surprised, for example, that this is not a company where people are empowered to make decisions because I... — read more 

Lost motivation as a ETW

When I first started at Nike, I was excited to be part of the technology team. I did whatever was asked, took extra duty. Now I'm feeling disillusioned. I have a shelf life coming up with no mention of a extension. literally watched another... — read more
