Nike EHQ is a waste of every resource Nike Inc. has to offer!

Pros

- The gym: where more than half the employees spend most of their days and the rest of the bunch go to wind down from all the bulls*#^ they have to put up with. - A handful of great people who are there to do a great job

Cons

It is really sad to see how the reputation of Nike Inc is being completely destroyed at their European HQ campus. That place is totally the opposite of what Nike Inc stands for: Simplify and go, Do the right thing, Evolve immediately, etc. It is definitely not the place for people who love their job and want to work hard. Because if you do, you will threaten the status quo of the majority lazies and then you will be intimidated, threatened and blackmailed by people who are employed there to support, coach and inspire their employees to do their best. The culture is awful, everything is impossible and most people do as little as possible and get by with it. There isn't a slight source of passion, technical skill or commitment in most employees and it's clearly obvious in the products/services that come out of there. This is not the JUST DO IT company that have been making great products for so long.

Bullying and intimidation

Pros

Good place to work if you are young and of the athletic mindset.

Cons

Age discrimination rampant. Despite the supposed changing of their ways, Nike remains a culture of bullying and intimidation, especially as you go higher in the organization. Perhaps an okay place to start a career but the higher you go, the worse the politics, the worse the harassment, the worse the bullying.

Pros

Great benefits, access to world class workout facilities, and the discount is hard to beat.

Cons

The benefits and discounts don't compensate for the lack of leadership and professional development that is not provided consistently across the entire company. In many areas employees are often babysat by people that love power and being called "manager" Nike knows that everyone wants to work there by the thousands of resume submitted per position. Having this market power allows them to often greatly underpay for talent because its next man up mentality. Outside of VPs, directors and the higher positions the brand has more priority than their employees that actually make it successful.
