Pros

The work environment is casual and there are lots of little perks (product, snacks, company-sponsored parties/events, discounts), an amazing and beautiful campus to come to every day. There are a lot of intelligent, ambitious and entrepreneurial types of people to work alongside. The CEO is amazing with an untarnished and highly-regarded reputation around campus.

Cons

The parking and commute is a total nightmare - Portland and Beaverton traffic is extremely congested every single morning and evening and working from home is not an option on my team. The cafeteria food is overpriced and uninspiring. While the people are some of the best I've ever worked with, too many people are self-absorbed and full of themselves and have the attitude/demeanor that they're saving the world while looking oh-so stylish. It's actually quite entertaining when it's not completely nauseating. A lot of waste happens at Nike - from massive amounts of product waste to extravagant & ridiculous spending amongst some teams, VP parking spots that sit empty while the rest are packed like sardines everywhere else, travel plans that change on a dime (and significant dollars lost in the process), and so on. Very difficult to push through the glass ceiling and walls at Nike.

Pros

This started as a summer job during COVID and extended for the next couple of years. I loved working here and in my experience had a good managers. I personally like Nike so the discount was a big perk!

Cons

The main con is pay. I was paid near minimum wage with little increase YOY. If you want to pursue corporate there are rotations that become available at the retail level, but very competitive.
