Champion Teamwear Reviews

Pros

Cute clothes to buy as an employee. They try to train you in corporate literacy.

Cons

Need better trained management.

Pros

Store manager is really kind, understanding, everyone is friendly

Cons

Associates wouldn't always help each other

Pros

*Genuinely great people! *There are plenty of opportunities to be involved with special projects and multi-department committees. *Senior management is approachable, interacts with everyone, and provides regular updates using a Q&A-type forum. *Young, passionate workforce eager to make cool products. *Be a Hanesbrand employee but live and work in Manhattan KS - a great city! *Many of the managers and leadership roles are folks who started in more basic roles and have moved up, so they're committed to GTM and really understand the business. *HR is fantastic. *Everyone wants to be better. *Free clinic/urgent care. *Dresscode is basically just have clothes on. *Decent health benefits and network.

Cons

*Office space is pretty bland, not many windows. *Work-from-home/remote isn't broadly accepted. *There's still some ping-pong feeling as GTM works to fully integrate itself with Hanes/Champion. *Dental and vision benefits are a bit pricey. *Plenty of work to be done but sometimes resources are sometimes constrained, leading to bottlenecks and prioritization that delays or stops valuable work. *Not that many holidays off and vacation/personal time is a bit limited at first.

Pros

It is a pretty good work environment with the ability to learn multiple different skills. The more things you learn the better the chance you will be able to have a pay increase. During peak busy season there is plenty of opportunities to do overtime. Some Saturday's are mandatory. For full-time employees there is access to a free gym membership, PTO, 401k, Dental, Health, Life, and Vision insurance. Also a free on site health clinic for employees and family members.

Cons

Usually if you are hired anywhere from June-September you will be a temporary hire and will only be on for 6 months. Once your 6 months is up depending on their budget and workload they could let you go. But most people stay unless there is an abundance of temp employees. During slow season it could really slow. So some days you might go home early. But on the other token they will usually allow you to go to other departments if you want to finish your shift. I also think base pay is low for production work.

Pros

Hopefully Champion will help get it back on track

Cons

not compensated for quality of work
