The best job I've had—by far - Visual & Graphic Production Artist Nathan James Employee Review

I've worked in many distribution/fulfillment environments and I'm proud to say that working for Nathan James has been so refreshing. The executive team gives their team the freedom to implement projects without having to go through all the red tape you typically see in a corporate environment. Everyone on the team is incredibly smart, hard-working, and willing to lend a hand when needed. Work-life balance is hard to come by when working in supply chain. Nathan James respects their employees time and allows them the freedom to work around their life outside of work. People with strong time management will thrive in the environment they have developed over the years.

I have nothing negative to say about this company. They know what their opportunities are but consistently work on improving on them. I've seen numerous positive changes within my time with the company and fully believe this team will continue on the great path they have already paved.

Fair hourly pay with decent health, vision, and dental benefits.

Toxic and unprofessional work environment. Favoritism is common, leading to inconsistencies in management and decision-making. Employees in non-exempt roles are often misclassified as salaried workers, which results in excessive unpaid overtime. This is misleadingly framed as a “benefit,” but in reality, employees often work significantly more hours than they would if paid hourly. There is no structured HR department and no formal workplace training. Compliance with labor laws and workplace safety regulations is minimal, making this a liability risk. Safety policies are either nonexistent or ignored, with a lack of standard procedures for things like Lockout/Tagout. Acquiring proper PPE was often difficult, and in some cases, employees were discouraged or even ridiculed for requesting it. The workplace culture fosters hostility, with frequent unprofessional behavior, including inappropriate comments about female colleagues. Employee relations often escalate into harassment or even threats. PTO is minimal, with sick time and vacation time unfairly combined into a single pool. There is a desperate need for a comprehensive employment contract and a detailed employee handbook.
