Thoughts? https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/04/business/eeoc-nike-white-employee-discrimination.html

Can anyone chime in on how severance work these days? Tenure? Anyone negotiate? Do they pay out PTO? (esp. folks who were never allowed to actually use PTO) Negotiate?

$1 trillion valuation first for non tech company. Stock thru the roof. And here is Nike claiming to be a tech company under JD and continuing to underwhelm both in tech and product. Sure it's not a 1 to 1 comparison but goes to show competent... — read more 

Heard layoffs are starting next week at least for converse, does anyone know?

CS really wanted the Head of EMEA job instead of China? Do you think she asked EH when the had the conversation about this? I'd imagine she'd rather move back to the Netherlands verses Shanghai but hey maybe there is a hidden reason that I am not... — read more 

If I get cut, at least the dreadful waiting game is over. I can stop jumping at every email and start dealing with the actual problem instead of the fear of it.

VP - endlesslya swashbuckling with engineered decks to ask for more budget for FTEs, consulging engagements (or stupid tech programs with fraudelent value cases that was pitched to them in exchange for a potential board seat down the line). Not... — read more 

For real? I thought it was a joke when I heard about it.

That era has passed. Only leaders with exceptional skills and a high degree of adaptability can save companies and make them prosper now. I'm afraid we don't have that kind of leadership at our disposal.

Hi, I am not at Nike anymore but should have lifetime Swoosh benefits. Is there any way to get back into my account? I did not update my email from nike.com to personal email before I left. Has anyone been able to do that AFTER they exited? Thank... — read more 

DA already sc--wing it up

Serious question: after all the cuts and chaos, does anyone actually work for a manager who knows what they're doing? Feels like all the good ones left, and the ones left are either checked out or clueless.

Mark my words: Skims and Lisa will save Nike!

Instead of APLA being broken up and APLA fired, CS was PROMOTED. What happened here?

Remember when they actually wanted you to develop new skills and move up? That focus on employee growth is totally gone now. It's a big change from how things used to be.

Global sportswear giant Nike has expanded its presence in India by leasing 126,000 sq ft of premium office space in the Olympia Building at Bagmane Tech Park, Bengaluru. This strategic move highlights Nike’s commitment to strengthening its corporate... — read more 

This is a serious question and ONLY directed at H-1b FTEs. I’m a white female from Europe who used to be on H-1b when initially hired by Nike. I’ve been a permanent resident for a while now but still curious about something. I know the scenarios... — read more 

What is the best way to report? HR, Speak up line, Sr Leadership? Should I? Have fear of retaliation.

They lost any maneuvering room to show results besides cuts a long time ago. At this stage, we're in a managed decline, an effort to maximize profits for the top and shareholders for as long as possible.

Until CS fails in china.

Read the message. Workforce reduction incoming fast. I bet announcing now so recognize the layoffs in current fiscal. No waiting long on this one. Good vibes to all

SC re-org starts today. Post what you know below!

The rest are to work in very limited squads and save money. GT Sr LT - do you really work like that?

Maybe we can call out that bringing Adobe into Nike was a TERRIBLE idea. What a waste of tens of millions of dollars. Everyone involved with that decision should be fired, fired, fired. It ki-led innovation and slowed us down. Wouldn’t be... — read more 

I was just thinking about how we used to be known for innovation. Now it feels like we're just maintaining old products. What happened?

Oh boy. The outcome of this won’t be good.

Surprised this isn’t on here already … things are happening fast. Big layoff in the sports marketing area. Everyone told to work from home today Monday and Tuesday.

I’ve been around long enough to see multiple versions of Nike’s SLT come and go. This one is easily the worst. Even with natural turnover over the years, I’ve never seen a group this ineffective or directionless. There’s no real vision, no sense of... — read more 

I’ve participated in ESPP for several years, and the lack of a consistent strategy is becoming hard to ignore. Leadership keeps reacting on short-term measures instead of planning; repeated layoffs every few months erode trust internally and... — read more 

Converse people - does anyone know the week we should be expecting reorg and layoffs and to work from home? Getting tired of waiting around.

APLA has been for a long time the best example of how things should be done. More hands on, comparatively less BS, the priorities are the priorities and not what some lousy global leader asks for this week, do more with way less (sometimes 4 to 1... — read more 

Did anyone else get Cobra Insurance Letters from Nike today in the mail? I have 4 co-workers who got one today with nothing in the office being mentioned.

Sprinted to this page once the email came out 🤣🤣🤣

Out of 14 VPs left, we have 2 maybe 3 decent leaders left at the VP level in GT. Others are highly toxic, backstabbing, have no vision, will sacrifice their team to make themselves look good, lack technical, product, or design competency. Make... — read more

New Geo's coming soon !!! What will happen with CS? As APLA will sure to cease.
