Toxic Culture

Pros

Nike has a great history and standing in the public eye. Great benefits.

Cons

But inside the factory, the culture is toxic. The Directors and higher ups have great intentions for implementing great programs and improving the workers way of life. But the follow-through that is supposed to be implemented by the factory management is non-existent. They will quietly, continue to do things their way. Too many times, have managers/supervisors done less than the bare minimum for their direct reports. One example, CFE 1:1's have a standard of one every quarter, should take anywhere from 15-60 mins. One supervisor will make sure to get them done in a timely manner and actually has a conversation with their direct reports. And another will boast that they can get 15 CFE's done in 13 minutes... Literally less than 1 minute per person. It's extremely inconsistent and inconsiderate. To the point that the workers feel stifled and cut off at the knees at this company. There is no room for growth. And the supervisors do not make it a priority to develop their personnel. To top it off, if someone were to report or say something, they are retaliated against by having the limited opportunities removed from their path for growth. Then proceed to be faced with microaggressions until they inevitably decided to part ways with the company.

Pros

Great company that is truly inspirational for athletes* around the world. But time to rebrand from being a white boys club and wake up to the fact - that built its business on - Black athletes!! Kudos towards supporting and taking a stand on political, environmental and social causes.

Cons

Self-branding is vital, if you want to grow in the company, rather than hard work and dedication. If you know people and good at networking, you can go up in career. It is encouraged to move jobs every few years and that means, there is no accountability for yourself and your past jobs - which fosters poor leadership, poor decisions and poor talent. I can only imagine what the company can be if it can recognize and foster true talent!!!
