If you mean Nike doesn't pay late, because they are a big corporation, I have the opposite opinion. In my experience, the biggest corporations pay when they feel like it. We spent 2 years contacting coke trying to make them a client. When we finally landed the account, we had one associate dedicated to handling only Coke jobs. They had events all year around all across the nation, so they were a top priority and awesome to work with, but when it comes to the accounting/paying portion, they pay when they want too and we may send a friendly reminder, but they are too big and powerful to really do anything about making them pay on time and they know it.
