Pros
- Inspiring mission - Our CEO is amazing - Awesome campus if you get to work in campus...there are more employees working outside campus in Beaverton than inside campus - Average pay and average benefits. Not the highest pay in Oregon, not the lowest. The health benenits are ok, but not amazing for such a big employeer. - If you land in a good team, Nike is what it looks from the outside, amazing, but if you land in a bad team, well, you may ask "Is this Nike?" - Work/Life balance is good if you decide to push for it, but if you decide to put 80 hours a week, nobody will stop you.
Cons
- HR is one of the main issues. If you run into a problem with your manager and you can't solve it, HR does not want to get involved. HR will want you to talk to your manager and your manager's manager which means you walk into a conference room with two chains of command above you -and so for-, which means that if management wants to protect each other, you're in a pretty bad situation. - HR Recruiters. They're mostly a external workforce working all over the country. It used to be that the HR recruiters would do a very good job responding to internal and external applications. Not these days. The recruiting workforce is in a shared services model and the whole personal touch is lost. - Career management is not what it used to be. Career management used to be a big focus within the company and advancement was feasible. These days, the focus on career management has been lost & advancement is pretty challenging.
