When I first started here I was really happy. As time went on I became aware of some problems. The warehouse is small, they need to expand because the employees are packed in like sardines and are still required to keep up with productivity. To me the environment reminds me of a sweat shop. The managers have their favorite employees and the seem to get away with anything. I recently noticed an employee that worked double shifts just so the company would not be behind. He ended up getting terminated for no explanation. Everyone else gets a warning. I guess they weren't the managers favorite and actually spoke their mind. I would not recommend this employer. When I find another job I'm gone.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Process is completely structured, ready to go if you know the basics. That is the only good part about the job. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Mandatory Working hours  without exception. Between 8h and 11h and Saturdays  depending on order accumulation. 1 brake. Standing all the time. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment is very heavy, cameras and pictures are taken, microphones everywhere even in lunch room. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Starting sharp, no talking, mistakes are punished, 2 orders damage,  they fire you.

I have been employed with Royal threads for almost 3 years. There has never been a time I didn't feel like my voice was heard or my opinion valued. The managers keep an open door policy. I will happily stay employed here until it is time for me to retire, that is how happy I am. They have a good benefits package and I appreciate my paid time off. I have been trained in multiple areas and there is the opportunity for advancement.

Worked my butt off for 6 months. Tried to make friends with managers so MAYBE my life would be a little easier. Got pulled to the office and was told to listen to my supervisor no matter what she said. The next day work was slow she said I could take an early lunch. I took the early lunch, and was fired at the end of the day. This place is so disorganized, no one knows anything it’s always ‘ask so and so when he comes in’. One of the worst places I’ve worked.

I was a machine operator and un-bagged and verified packing slips. When needed I also folded, bagged and steamed. The work itself is not difficult but the management needed some adjusting. Required long hours on my feet.

Managers are helpful and kind, job is simple, not too hard. Typical day for first shift starts at 730 and runs til 4, with opportunity for overtime. I worked in shipping, with most of the labor being moving small- mid sized clothes boxes around.

There’s obviously a lot of room for improvement. But if you do your work right, don’t mess up often, and at least try to solve things independently, you’ll be on EVERYONE’S good side. Pay raise went up for me quite nicely and easily. But the benefits for full time employees are not worth it. It’s not good coverage

Being employed by Royal Threads is wonderful! They give reasonable hours and reasonable pay. If you need to take off work, you can and they won't harass you about it! The bosses in the Durham office are amazing and wouldn't ask you to do anything that they themselves wouldn't do.

Overworked. Constant mandatory overtime. Very strict. No talking. Cameras everywhere. People get targeted if they're not liked. Will push those people to quit by putting them in situations they dislike or not usually apart of their job. 

Working at this company is very frustrating. It seems if you are a reliable, hard working employee the worst you are treated. 
on the part of the management there are favoritism played in the treatment of certain employees.
