Pros

Thirty Three Threads is a dynamic and growing company with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. The people are genuinely supportive and collaborative, and there is a strong sense of teamwork across departments. Employees are encouraged to take ownership, share ideas, and grow alongside the business. Another major perk is access to the company’s products, which is a huge benefit and makes it easy to feel connected to the brands and the work. Overall, it’s an engaging environment for someone who enjoys a fast-moving, hands-on role.

Cons

As with many growing companies, priorities can shift and things move quickly. This may not be the right fit for someone looking for a slower-paced or highly structured corporate environment.

Chaotic, Mismanaged, and Emotionally Draining Workplace

Pros

None that meaningfully outweigh the issues below

Cons

This was one of the most toxic work environments I have experienced. There was virtually no leadership, structure, or training. New employees are immediately assigned large, high-stakes projects with unrealistic timelines and are expected to perform as if they are long-tenured employees, despite receiving little to no onboarding or guidance. The office culture is extremely depressing and isolating. The environment is silent, with no collaboration or teamwork—only awkward interactions. Employees are not properly introduced, there is no clear org chart, and it often feels intentionally disorganized. Morale is visibly low, and it is common to hear about employees crying before or after work. Project management is extremely poor. Nearly every project runs significantly behind schedule, leading to constant scrambling and last-minute fire drills. These delays are then pushed onto employees, who are expected to be available at all hours. Meetings are frequently not placed on calendars, run for excessive lengths of time (often five hours or more), and regularly extend far past normal working hours. There is little respect for work-life balance. Employees are expected to be on call 24/7 and are often asked on Friday nights to work weekends due to management’s inability to plan or stay on schedule. The turnover rate is alarmingly high, which further reflects the unsustainable and unhealthy nature of the workplace. Overall, the culture feels cold and heartless, with little regard for employee wellbeing. Senior leader ship is constantly talking poorly about former and current employees. Lastly, the interview process is wild… they take about 3 months to hire you, and have you submit a project that can take well over a week to complete.

Chaotic leadership, no growth, and toxic culture

Pros

- The coworkers you’re in the trenches and trauma bonding with are the only redeeming part.

Cons

- Leadership is chaotic, reactive, and disconnected. If you bring issues to them or to HR nothing changes. - Turnover is out of control, and people often leave with no job lined up after. In this market, that should speak volumes. - No true growth potential. Leadership will sell you on “if we grow, you grow,” but it’s just a line to string people along. -No clear direction in your role. Job descriptions are vague, and even when you ask for clarification, you won’t get it. - Pay is far below industry standards. They’ll expect you to be a “team player,” but what they really mean is taking on work far beyond what’s acceptable. - The environment is toxic and stressful, with leadership frequently making people feel uncomfortable.
