How can you lay off 1400 people and not lay off a single VP in the process. I think that exposes the true purpose of this layoff more than anything else.

First off, I'm sorry to those let go. I hope they're able to find something better and more secure. Some orgs have been told layoffs are done. I've seen "Tech Activation Touch Base" still being used for both for reorg meetings. Poor taste reusing... — read more

I unfortunately was not laid off. Honestly, I would’ve loved to have had 4 to 8 months of severance to get out of this he-l hole. Unfortunately, I’m stuck behind in a company that’s already dead and doesn’t know it. The company that Phil Knight... — read more

Tech has no idea what they are breaking with the people they randomly selected to depart. This will set the company back another year. Sell now while you can before you lose more! About to be Under Armor all over again stock wise!

One Senior Director was asked to deliver the bad news. He did it. The day after, he was laid off. The question is: How can you trust?

This is a textbook execution of work turnover. You eliminate all of the talent. You leave a handful of your most vulnerable sheeple to say yes without friction. You proceed to turn over the work to the incoming team. Just another American company... — read more 

I'm still trying to figure out what I did wrong.

There is no reason this couldn’t have been handled with a single, clear email sent in the morning to everyone impacted. Something every competent organization manages to do without creating chaos. Instead, we’re expected to sit around all day... — read more 

Game is gutted once more. 15 minute meeting with your leader and a script read by HR could have been done in bulk. But no. We want to drag this out.

My email is with a director I don’t report to and says “I’m setting time to touch base”. Anyone get a similar email? Also my team was hit already yesterday

Nike's former CTO agrees with this LKDN post that Nike is divesting the wrong things. These repeated cuts feel less like a thoughtful long-term strategy and more like a short-term push to satisfy board expectations and quarterly metrics. “Win Now”... — read more

I want Nike to succeed, but what’s happening in certain areas is deeply concerning and hard to ignore. Not all managers are part of this, and there are still many who lead with integrity. However, in some cases, hiring is clearly not based on merit... — read more

And yet lots of good talent let go today….not seeing morale rising anytime soon if poor sr leaders still here….

Even no brand Chinese products on Amazon have better quality.

Great ones went down today. The good Directors and Senior Directors of teams departed likely because the SD or VP above them usually felt threatened. This is why Nike is failing. Best to them. They made us better. I hope they take us with them... — read more

No VP and no resilience/reliability…..
