Pros

Successful brand. Very interesting and diverse products. Strong marketing. Good benefits including retirement plan , vacation, PTO. Great place to apply and develop your ideas.

Cons

First job in my 25 years of my professional work that I experienced bullying and discrimination at work just because the way I look and/or my accent . Even though my work was noted to contribute significantly to goals established and even co-author a patent for the golf division, I was not respected . It took a while to understand what was happening until I realized that I was been mistreated. I hurried to find other opportunity , family and I had to relocate to other State. Very sad.

Pros

Nike has tremendous resources and capabilities in its core areas, as you'd expect from a company of its size and history. The talent pool is very impressive, and there are many wonderful people there who enjoy and believe in what they do. The benefits are good on the whole, and when the company lives up to its own ideals, it can do great things.

Cons

Very few in leadership understand tech or data, but they insist it's the company's future. The yearly review process is awful: grueling and petty, and destructive to all the supposed attempts at employee development. The relentless internal propaganda can be nauseating. The lofty ideals (like the 11 maxims) are pounded into you, but they're used to justify mundane business actions more often than they're used to inspire or elevate.

Pros

Definitely worth the discount! however, beware! you may end up spending your decent paycheck on their merchandise! Also, i was hired on as seasonal, got however many hours i wanted, when i got kept on as a part-time under assoc (under 19 hours) they were pretty good at getting me up to my 19 hours.

Cons

Disliked how some shifts were only 4 hours long.. the bart trip there and back home was about $7-8 each time so I'm basically only being paid for 3 hours.. not worth the trip IMO.
