So glad I left Nike 2 years ago! Happier than ever, healthier, WFH fulltime, and making more money. Remember, the best time to find a new job is while you are employed. Use this time wisely.

@8azd+1mpHOr09 historically I've seen them act more as chief of staff

@8jmc Employees did in fact ask for less bureaucracy and more streamlined operations. When they asked for that in surveys they just didn’t know that the way you streamline things is to involve fewer people. Nike is still pretty bloated with 77,000 employees. Most of those are in retail but HQ is without a doubt richly staffed. Next time we have a recession, and combined with the fact that AI can now do a scary amount of tasks that are entire job titles, you’ll see Nike get much leaner in the future.

Can’t wait for the next “you asked for this” speech from our overlord drowning in cash.

Scrum master is a role not a job, I am not sure what they do with their time or what value they bring. This happened in tech a while ago.

The months ahead for Program will be more exhausting, depressing chaos.

i'm guessing it's not on OR WARN due to the amount of people.

Why does the OR WARN list not reflect these layoffs?

LinkedIn is already starting to show a few now-former colleagues posting fresh open-to-work flags and pleas for job leads.

I personally know 2 scrum masters, 3 program managers that were Rif'd this last Monday morning. Is that detailed enough for you? So. Many. Trolls.

Hey everyone Nike’s new fiscal year is almost here, the economy is dead, global trade is dead, and your livelihood is tied to people buying luxury goods imported from the worlds next conflict zone.

Read the writing on the wall. Stop wasting your money on stupid cr-p and come up with a backup plan. Nikes tightening its belt, you better too.

The vague comments are so annoying. Give us details or don’t bother posting.

Layoffs galore. I’m so sorry to my fellow colleagues. This is not how the story should end.
