They sent a workday login and temp password that....doesn't work. Is there anything significant there related to being dismissed or will they just send a box for the laptop ? Don't really want to email my monster direct report anymore than I need to... — read more
COBRA Coverage
For those who were impacted by prior Nike re-orgs, did Nike cover 100% of the COBRA premium (i.e., employer + employee monthly insurance premium) or only the employer portion of the COBRA insurance for x months? And, did you have to sign up for... — read more

ESPP
I have sold my stock after the last two purchases and reinvested in SPY, QQQ and SMH… hands-down, one of the best financial decisions I have made. Dan is such a clusterfu-k
What’s the salary range for gr. 50 in HR?
Asking for a friend.
We do not have time for these stupid group projects
I do not have time to “create and perform a skit, video, musical number to introduce yourself and your team to the new org flying formation.” I’m trying to figure out my new job, scope, existence.
The 5 Day Work Week is Upon Us…
Get ready. The announcement is coming. JD just wants one more zinger before he hopefully gets axed.
The truth
The only people for whom Nike is relevant are sneakerheads. The brand is so weak now that kids are not demanding Nike shoes like they did in the past. There's so many other options that frankly appeal more to younger shoppers than Nike's pretty... — read more
SP 500 vs NKE
While SP 500 is up by almost 100% in the 5 years, NKE has gained 0%. Why is JD paid 32 million dollars?
The dirt we carry
When is enough enough This has got to stop. Report everything you know and get it off your shoulders. I can't stand this anymore with all the hush hush to each other and so on. If you know something, say it. Just say it and report it. If we all come... — read more
Whistleblower isn’t being listened to
I’ve been trying to whistle blow on the corrupt, toxic behavior at Nike with HR and they won’t do ANYTHING!! I feel like I’m out of options because this needs to be addressed and Nike needs to be held accountable. What should I do? I’m about 1 week... — read more
Allow me to offer this advice
When you are asked to teach newly hired employees some of the things you usually do, give them direction, but never fully transfer your knowledge to them. Chances are, that person is being trained to take your job because they're cheaper and you're... — read more
Nike is corrupt.
When was the last time that you felt safe at Nike? I did for years until recently. Someone please tell me what's going on. I've never felt more uncertain about my job until these last few years. I'm hearing this at other companies. Is this the new... — read more
Nike HR is corrupt
I wish one of these big law firms would go after them and teach them and the employment law team a lesson. People speak up and next thing you know they are managed out, fired or laid off. I just learned about a former colleague who was terminated... — read more
Noncompete enforced, really?
Anyone else get notified their noncompete is being enforced? Saying I have to tell them where I take a job. Realize they are just about unenforceable but WTH?
A telling and pretty bad quote by JD in the press...
By way of explaining why the last few years have focused on AF1/AJ1/Dunk (and not new innovation), JD is quoted in Fast Company as saying: “We don’t apologize for exploiting sneaker culture”. I’m not a JD hater (I tend to think that the hate he... — read more
Read the room
I have seen this a few times this week… not to mention it’s always HR ppl getting promoted. Now might not be the best time to brag about your new promotion at Nike while every other post is someone being laid off. Glad they could shift that budget... — read more
What’s causing Nikes struggle
Besides the factors which we blame in our earnings call such as lack of innovation, cutting off too many wholesale partners, macroeconomy… I’m curious to hear what you think may be contributing which hasn’t gathered as much public attention. Prefer... — read more
LT Post Reorg yawn meetings

Post Reorg Learnings
Every day the transition changes, the communication is terrible. Learned one of our APD VPs has a history of badgering employees behind closed doors. She already wore one director out last year, fired another in the reorg, now shes picking new... — read more
What does DH's org deliver?
Lot of people with fancy words in their job titles. Strategy, transformation, modernization. What are their deliverables, other than attending meetings.
Bring back food in Dan Fouts
Trying to sell sunglasses where burritos used to be is weird and embarrassing. It looks so cheap.
this is ur prblm
Yeah this is your problem. TAKE OWNERSHIP in your layoff. Ask yourself. ''What was my role in this?!'' OR do you just want to be a victim? I mean ... Your choice!!!
What does the NAO do anyways ?
Seems like a bunch of glorified project managers Also lots of “Karen” energy in the leadership ranks. What do they even do ?
These Boots are made Walking….
Found this telling on so many levels…..from Fast Company (you’d think she’d swoosh up for an interview at the very least.) “Heidi O’Neill, the company’s president of consumer, product, and brand, sits in front of a window, seven stories high in... — read more
Negotiate severance?
Anyone else considering this before signing?
Failing NKE? One answer
Strategy. John destroyed the category offense and that was our foundation of growth rooted in sport. Crippling move…. CDA was the worst pivot = negative net growth.
Who else is overloaded after the layoffs?
Lost 4 team members! Their work load became my work load! Lol 😆 I have not had a chance to eat lunch during the day since we are back from layoffs!

Retirement Benefits?
Does Nike offer any retirement incentives? What are the requirements for eligibility? Searching the HR website and coming up with nothing. I recall there used to be some kind of point system for “Gold Badge” status, is that at all related? Been here... — read more
Has the Q4 Earnings Call Been Scheduled Yet?
Shouldn’t it be next week? I don’t see anything online yet.

Do kids care? Maybe a better question - who is our consumer in 2024?
Completely sensible threads being removed
There was a thread making completely sensible and respectful criticisms of Nike’s implementation of DEI which was removed. What the fu-k??? It had like a net +20 upvotes.
Lay off question
For us who are laid off week of Apr 22, when can we expect our severance payout? Do we have to pay for Cobra? Thanks!
All that's left is a Nest of Vipers
The aftermath of these RIFs is that all the nice people are gone and the gossiping has gone from 2 to 11 on a dial that stops at 10. Everyone is trying to dig dirt on everyone so that they don't get cut. People throwing each other under the bus left... — read more
Anyone have a clue as to the new structure?
Half my team is gone, and I still have no clue what or where I'll be working in the future, no manager, etc. We're just chugging along, doing the same work with paid external people now taking the place and work of the people who were let go. When... — read more
No raises?
Heard my first whisper of no performance raises this year. Apparently they didn't give them after the last big layoffs. &@?!$&!
