Pros

Great benefits, gyms on campus, annual wine sale, lots of super talented people, product discounts, if you are good at establishing and maintaining relationships- its the place for you

Cons

works on a matrix- so too much design by committee, lack of clarity sometimes in roles and how teams work together, very boys club- not many women in upper management, abuse of bad work lingo that doesn't really mean anything, too much time wasted on "socializing" your ideas with bad powerpoint decks

Pros

Working at Nike was a great experience overall. The company culture is energetic, inclusive, and team-oriented. Management encourages employees to embody the Nike brand and provides opportunities for growth within retail and corporate roles. Employee discounts are excellent and make it easy to enjoy the products you sell. The work environment is fast-paced, especially during launches and holiday seasons, which keeps the job engaging. I also appreciated working alongside passionate teammates who genuinely cared about customer service and creating a positive shopping experience.

Cons

Retail schedules can be inconsistent and often include nights, weekends, and holidays. During peak periods, the store can become extremely busy, which can be stressful when balancing customer service expectations with operational tasks. Advancement opportunities can vary depending on store location and management structure.
