Pros

Great pay, benefits, and culture. Good discounts and generally cool to be a part of such an iconic brand. Especially cool to be based at their global headquarters given the campus perks and events.

Cons

If you ACTUALLY want to get work done, have some wins/accomplishments under your belt, this is not the place for you. They pride themselves on making decisions by committee, which makes every decision an asinine process. You will spend MONTHS, literally 6+ months "socializing" an idea or body of work, and then have something come in and just render it a moot point. You just wasted 6 months doing literally nothing that matters. But, hey, you got paid well. They are trying to brand themselves internally as a technology company, yet they don't even have the MOST BASIC technology capabilities. It's truly a joke. And people push back on technological progress. The leadership they have on the tech side don't seem to know what the hell they're doing or they're just heavily influenced away from doing the smart thing. Several people doing the same job. So much overlap. Not uncommon to join a meeting and find that someone else on the call has your exact same job and now you two have to battle it out to figure out who's going to take this one on or what part of it you'll work on. They could probably let go of 60% of the people that work here and you'd still never notice.

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.
