remember strategic 40 accounts?

That was about 8 or 9 years ago.

I wonder if ROSS, MARSHALLS AND TJ MAXX has been added to strategic 40 accounts.

I know Nike is desperate but I wonder if Nike people count above as important accounts.

That is curious

As for the little account that Nike close? will not come back. Anyone with right mind will not open a new brick and mortar store.


It’s as simple as wide shoes…

I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of people that tell me that they don’t wear Nikes because they run to slim. And each time I just nod my head and say I agree. I do wonder how much more business we’d campfire by making a simple change like making our sizing more inclusive. My own family doesn’t even use my discount because they all have wide shoes and Nike doesn’t fit them😂

There’s low hanging fruit to be had all around, yet we overlook it to try to make these big statements that seemly haven’t landed in recent years.


Convention

I wish all our customers could see the amount of money this company spends on the convention. I work on it and see the amount of money and entitlement. Over $100 million, luxurious suites, personal drivers for execs, alcohol flowing, private concert (Pink) and arrogance on full display. They share the same message every convention, unveil new commercials and act like it’s all new. We are modernizing, get ready. My wish is they would get called out for spending policyholder money to throw a party for themselves in Las Vegas.


NIKE'S BIGGEST MISTAKE

destroy independent dealers network who had connection with their local markets, customer base and worked hard everyday to maintain positive relationships from Nike and their local customers.
Each individual dealers knew the market and provided what customer demanded. And from broad Nike offering they selected and provided what customer wants
For example: I had couple of store where there were majority of population was Hispanic and I worked hard to provide what they wanted. And I had a friend who had stores in mostly African American inner-city area his store offering was totally different than mine. And a friend in Central Valley rural area had his own offering of shoes that people in his area wanted.
Now, Nike eliminated all of their distribution system that helped to get where they are.
Instead, they have a system where it is one size fit approach.

Greed is what it ki-led the Nike. They thought that they could do everything by themselves with their minimum wage staff in the store. WRONG!!!!

Communism failed everywhere in the world because they thought that being is big is the best answer but history has proven thousands of individuals will beat communist every time.

I was told that eliminating all the independent dealers was PK's idea and ditto for hiring JD as CEO.
PK built Nike but he is also main reason that Nike will face negative future.


All about the customer

I keep hearing this CEO and management saying it’s all about the customer . Focus is on the customer and their experience. Yet I deal with a lot of customers daily for years and not one of them ever says they enjoy dealing with Ai when calling in or speaking to someone outsourced they don’t understand. It’s really odd how you say it’s about the customer but nothing you’re doing is going to benefit the customers. Letting go of 25-30k people … that’s gonna positively affect 1 thing … the CEO bank account in 3 years … it will make the customer experience dealing with verizon worse . Cellphone signal has gotten horrible in last 5 years since they sold off towers …. Are they investing to fix it ? Expanding Fios without govt welfare? Verizon is now one of the most toxic work environments out there …. It used to be just inside culture but it’s taken over the whole company . Greed at the top is disgraceful as they sc--w the thousands that built Verizon


Customer obsession, Disappeared in the industry

In the early days of cloud i used to hear everywhere mainly coming from Amazon. The folks who came to oracle from Amazon in the early days has only one saying in every town hall, calls at oracle- "Customer obsession". I am not hearing it anymore. it got dried out as money got dried out i guess. classic "Freakonomics "


Activity Sync

I'm sick of the weekly activity sync bs. Having to log fake calls because my customers don't want to speak on the phone. It's exhausting. I have 30 large customers and if I had to properly follow the metric I'd be constantly calling them to talk about what we don't have or can't sell. Right now they want to know how much will it cost today and how fast can I get it. Is it the same in EMEA & APJ or just mothership bs???


My Verizon wireless service is terrible

Can someone give me some idea or insight to how few years ago my service was pretty good in most areas .Now my service it terrible and spotty all over the place .Some areas I used to have no issue now have no or slow service.I mean it’s all over the place all over the country.Is this have anything to do with which unlimited plan I have or is it just our network has taken a total dump.This is no joke a serious question please


LAS deadline approaching

On April 15, 2026, every file-based Citrix license stops working. The new License Activation Service (LAS) is a cloud-based control mechanism.
No more on-premises static license files - install and forget - but external cloud dependency, connectivity testing, failover validation, etc. In some highly regulated business, it creates an architectural problem requiring more effort.
And LAS does not work with older versions of Citrix products: some big organizations have to upgrade their entire Citrix stack, and install all kind of patchs, sometimes provoking problems of ... license expiration.

I see customers complaining about the lack of support, probably overwhelmed by requests to solve the problems created by this new LAS.
And also customers questioning the costs of this LAS migration, that is imposed to them, for more constraints and no tangible benefit. Mandatory stay on supported versions. Citrix telemetry to verify usage data. Compliance checking. And wondering if the effort to migrate to another platform would not be better.

Sometimes I think that Citrix management is doing all they can to lose customers. Customers layoffs I suppose.


Support at weekends and holidays

I work for one of their "customers" although that's not how they make us feel. Its almost like they are doing us a favor. It seems to me that whenever I need support for our streaming service, they are off on some holiday or another or just not available.

I think we should get a discount and only pay 5/7ths of the support costs as Friday and Saturday, when we need the most support, are pretty much unavailable.


Xerox your paying for a directors puppet

There are ongoing concerns about a Southeast team member acting beyond their assigned responsibilities. Multiple customers have reported unprofessional communication, which is negatively affecting client relationships.

Additionally, decisions being made appear to prioritize short-term margin improvements at the expense of customer satisfaction. This is creating unnecessary friction and could impact long-term retention.

It would be helpful to clarify roles, responsibilities, and communication expectations to ensure a consistent and professional experience for clients.


All kidding aside.

Seriously. How is it possible to get out of the hole we are in? Can't lower prices, Customers don't want to come back to us, Can't gain trust to get new customers, Verizon is coming in. I wish Dennis or management would comment on how this company will start making money again! I have been here for a long time and I can't see a way to get out of this hole Altice put us in.


Is BNSF Scared???

This is on the BNSF Webpage:
“Merger Response Resources”

“If you have concerns and reservations about the proposed merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern, or you believe conditions are needed to ensure the merger doesn't reduce your competitive options, it is important that the Surface Transportation Board hear from you now and at every opportunity during the regulatory review process. Your voice matters.”

It’s like it’s another way of saying that they don’t want to compete with UP even more. It’s funny how they act like they care about the customer when they’ve ripped them off for years as well. If you want the customer’s business, lower your prices and offer better service. Simple. You know it as well as everyone else.


Big Price Increase in April 2026 for over 1.5 million customers

Company lost so many customers that revenue took a significant hit. As such in April 2026 they will be raising prices for over 1.5 million customers to squeeze more revenue out of them. Prediction, it pi---s more customers off and accelerates the customer exodus to competitors.


Price “adjustments” 😂

Another monumental sc--w up from 3M corporate functions - customers affected by multiple divisions with comms sent from some but not others so total confusion amongst our channel. No proposed adjustment on clp so nightmare for customers and trying to push all admin on to them, whilst also not providing any information that they need to make the changes. Way to go commercial excellence team - completely disconnected from reality and the businesses, are we on the business of destroying all of our relationships and everything our sales teams work for, why are you so focussed on sales prevention —YOU ARE CRASHING OUR BUSINESSES SO WAKE UP.


CDW Went Downhill Within 5 years

The company was a serious competitor in both the job market and PS/MS space roughly 5 years ago. Now it's an absolute mess with disasterous acquisitions, lack of innovation and excess red tape. I give the company 3-4 years before something serious buckles.

Customers are noticing!


Xerox has never cared about innovation

True story. Back in 1998 I had some ideas on how Xerox devices could incorporate features that customers were going to want. These were device wipe, encryption and similar security features. I was able to get these ideas to a product dev team. The response I got was that Xerox develops products based on what customers are buying, not based on assumptions of what they may want in the future. I took that to mean that Xerox copies but does not innovate. And here we are.


Avaya Nexus?

Can some explain wha the heck this even is without all the ridiculous jargin on the website and launch announcements?

This headline is incomprehensible:
“Avaya Nexus: Announcing The Security-First Voice Platform For Mission Critical Teams”

Another example: “ Avaya Nexus™, a companion product for Avaya Infinity, is specifically designed for no-fail, highly-regulated environments including emergency services, defense, government, healthcare, financial services, and public utilities.”

A companion product that does what? And fixes what problem? The marketing is awful


Now management is focused on Google Meets and Slack instead of the customer

If you have not heard, webex is going away! No we are using Google meets and management said, "you must have your camera on, no exceptions". One person was driving in and dialed into the meeting and the director demanded the person pull over and turn his phone camera on. Another person did not respond to a slack message within 15 min.. (they were on a break) and the manger and and director said it was not acceptable because they had slack on their phone and should have responded, ON THEIR BREAK.... but yet customers are ignored! This is getting out of hand! Dan, OH DAN... where are you DAN...? Where is your delight the customer focus DAN? We don't see it, all we see is show your face on Google Meets and slack is your life!


Does Optum Insight have any customers

Other than United healthcare and Optum, does Optum Insight really have any customers? This is not a criticism of the worker bees in OptumInsight, but rather a true curiosity about whether that business is viable or if it's all smoke and mirrors. And if it's smoke and mirrors, when will they be "found out"? I worked fairly closely with that business and honestly, I never knew what they actually sold -- because they could never quite articulate it.


Edward Jones Tracked, Shared Client Information without Client Consent

Early February there were two class-action suits filed - EJ allegedly embedded code from Google, Meta, LinkedIn and other sites and sold them the transactions, account values, investment purchases, dividends, and four digits of client customer account numbers when signing into password protected client portals.


New Roles, Less Customers Base, No Salary increase

Working on a large deal? Oh well, come 4/1 that opportunity is gone. Have a large customer base to flip and keep steady commissions in place? Not anymore and no salary increase or draw to compensate during the transition… Tell me RB wants reps to quit without telling me… disappointed in what Xerox has turned in to.


Dell is dying / dead

Everybody knows it. Continuous layoffs. Plummeting stock price. Customers pulling Dell footprint. No innovation. No enterprise solution portfolio worh a sh-t. Quality hemoraging. Support on life support. Clueless leadership. No AI relevance. Just low-cost, low-margin cheap hardware, that's it. To be honest, that's all Dell really ever was.


Failing Upwards

As a C-Suite executive, we can mention him on the board. Srini Krish is a prime example of how Fiserv only seems to elevate mediocre or even poor leaders. He’s sat in charge while infrastructure and development has sunk to record lows, driving away hundreds of long term customers. Now he’s in charge of even more? Please make it make sense.
