Nike Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I think there is a lot more opportunity and room for growth for tech people in other areas of the company. I worked as the only developer in the training function for most of my time at Nike and it was very isolating."

"I worked for Nike for 17 years and found the work fulfilling in the beginning. After growing up skillfully in the company the pay was not to the benefit of the skills acquired."

"I have worked for Nike Factory Store for just over 1 year. While the company has excellent products, and is very highly received, the overall work environment is very stressful for the type of industry involved. I have received very little encouragement for development or advancement within the company, and have encountered stress at a much higher level than necessary for this type of employment."

"Very large company but had an issue with treating you like a number."

"I had to take any job offered to comply with the unemployment dept. And Nike offered me the job. I still get partial income from Unemployment."

"Fantastic campus, lifestyle, benefits. Great place to have a career if started there early during your career, i.e. as a young intern or fresh out of school. Much more challenging to fit in mid-career, as the culture is immature and office politics is like a school playground that can dominate any accomplishments. It's young and hip, the flip side is a lot of immature unprofessional behavior. It's a vast org with lots of micro culture, some much better than others, so do your homework."

"I've worked for Nike Retail since 2010. I've found it to be a strong company with good ethical values and an emphasis on customer retention. The company employs around thousands people and has over 30 locations in California."

"Nike is not a very great place, but a good place to work."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"A lot of people (FTEs) do not have enough work and are perhaps not very serious about their work just because they are FTEs. Nike spends a lot of money on them and they just come to the office, read and send a few emails, chit chat, go for running, and go home. Whereas they expect the contractor to be 100% PERFECT. Many of the FTEs are not competent to the ETWs, but nothing can be done, I guess. Change is what all of us are looking for. JUST DO IT."
