Nathan James was founded in 2016 with a simple mission in mind: People-first company, design-first home.
Hear directly From Brooklyn Burdon, Nathan James’ founder, on her origin story here: https://nathanjames.com/pages/story-of-a-broke-girl
We recognized early that there was something broken about the way the world was working. With rushed deadlines, ASAP, and the bottom line over all mentality, leading to unhappiness amongst the team. We’re trying to do it a little differently, to build and organize the company around calmness and rationale.
We have a rhythm to our work and a very low turnover rate — we have yet to have a single team member opt-out.
Our values, workplace (albeit digital), and our benefits are designed to support a sustainable, healthy relationship with your work.
Our operating values provide the framework we use in building a healthy, resilient organization —https://nathanjames.com/blogs/latest/nathan-james-operating-values
Our benefits are all aimed at supporting a life well lived, both at work and away from work. We’re all about reasonable working hours, sharing profit, ample vacation time, wellness, education, comfort, and giving back.

For a little more insight into our company performance:
It took us three months from the day that we first shipped to become profitable, and have maintained profitable growth to this day. We hit our first $1M ARR at the end of our first month in business.
As a people-first company, we understood from day one the importance of being fully distributed / remote. We support each team member working in the manner that helps them perform their best.
We are a design-first, home furnishing company. We pride ourselves on the best in class customer happiness, providing the highest possible quality products that are affordable and assembly that isn’t dreadful.
