Nike announces 740 RIF at their WHQ in Beaverton, OR between April 22nd and June. :-( #layoff #Nike
Are these tech roles?!
Most of them are likely tech roles from the Global Tech, Marketplace and Consumer Insights teams among others.
Are they getting severance? Also curious what roles.
Severance is more than what people are expecting. In some cases, people are offered the option of severance or a demotion as their role is being eliminated.
Demotion or paycut looks fair in this current scenario..
that sucks. I would imagine the rest of the 2% is spread worldwide
They are also reducing contractors, and cutting programs. So many staffing and consulting firms who depend on them are going to have a cascading of layoffs as well.
Yes, that will be in addition to the 740 number. Contractors don’t need to be listed in WARN notices which is companies like Nike hire them by the boatload.
