Nike Cuts Under 1% of Corporate Staff in Elliott Hill's Sport-First Overhaul

Nike confirmed on 28 August 2025 that it would lay off less than 1% of its corporate staff as CEO Elliott Hill reorganised teams around sports rather than men's, women's and kids', with affected staff told by 8 September.

Nike said the cuts affect less than 1% of its corporate staff, and its EMEA and Converse businesses are not affected^[1]
Staff were to learn whether they were affected in conversations by 8 September, most new roles took effect on 21 September, and U.S. and Canada office staff worked remotely the week of the talks^[1]
Hill is undoing the men's, women's and kids' structure of former CEO John Donahoe so Nike, Jordan and Converse teams are organised around the athletes they serve^[1]
Reuters later put the August round at a little less than 1% of Nike's corporate workforce^[2]
CNBC later described it as about 1,000 corporate job cuts^[3]
