Meet our people

“When I look back at my Gildan career, I feel proud. I’m amazed at what I have achieved. I have been blessed with great mentors who have helped me over the years, including my current manager who has given me the wings to fly.”

“Gildan has provided me with countless opportunities to grow both professionally and personally while still maintaining a work-life balance. I love working with talented individuals from the various Gildan sites across the globe.”

“When I was in college, I used to drive by the Gildan facility and think to myself, “one day, I’m going to work there! Little did I know that shortly after that, I’d get an interview and start my journey at Gildan. That was 20 years ago!”

“I love being part of a company and culture where the breadth and scope of the opportunities before us is only exceeded by the immense talent and dedication of my colleagues at every level of responsibility within Gildan.”

“I am proud that we can be a part of the community and contribute something back. We get involved with the United Way, the YMCA, and several different boards. We are proud of our involvement with that.”

"When Gildan opened its operations here, it was the best thing that could ever have happened to Blain County. I have been working in textiles for 40 years. This work I know. I know it, and I enjoy it."

“The culture at Gildan is very family oriented. We celebrate each other’s milestones and accomplishments, we have birthday parties and we laugh. I may be a supervisor, but I work with my team side-by-side every single day.”

"I am happiest on the manufacturing floor. Multiple times each day you’ll see me escape from my office and make my way to the shop floor. I talk to our operators, understand the challenges they face and see what I can do to improve their work process. I’ve spent years working with the people here; we know each other well and are comfortable working together. We’re a family"

"At Gildan, everyone was rooting for me because they wanted me to succeed! It was the ideal environment to have a fulfilling learning experience because everyone on my team was kind, knowledgeable and simply wanted me to have the best experience possible."

"My internship was so memorable! I was able to work with amazing people who inspired me every day and pushed me to be successful. The most rewarding part of my experience was the ability to work on a team of qualified professionals that allowed me grow personally and professionally."

"Whether it was through the challenging work, the well-rounded individuals or the entrepreneurial work environment, Gildan always found a way to exceed my expectations."

"What I enjoyed the most about my summer at Gildan was the people. My co-workers were so impressive, passionate and down to earth. Even when I had a million questions, they were also there to help me and walk me through complex problems. I was expecting a corporate financial setting to be kind of intimidating, but the work environment was really stimulating and enjoyable."

"My internship was an enriching and rewarding experience! I received continuous support from my team and was able to explore many new aspects of my field. The whole experience was eye-opening and offered so much knowledge and invaluable work experience."

"I had a great time interning at Gildan. The entrepreneurial spirit and fast-paced environment taught me the importance of being opened to change and adaptable. It was inspiring to be surrounded by smart people who were continuously there to help me succeed."

"Joining Gildan has been one of my greatest achievements! It’s been a great place to grow in. The work environment is both challenging and calming at the same time. The best of both world’s really. If I ever got the opportunity to work here again, I wouldn’t hesitate one second!"

"I feel connected to this great company and most importantly, I am inspired by the people I get to work with and all of those I have built close bonds of friendship with. I cannot imagine working anywhere else."

“I have been very fortunate in my professional career to have had numerous coworkers, managers, and professional contacts who have been role models for me, in situations like this. I believe we can learn something new every day and continue to look at the examples set by past and current mentors in order to remain grounded in the core principles of this profession.”

“What I have appreciated the most is the opportunity and the trust that Gildan has placed in me as a professional to be able to lead the most important asset of any organization, our people. What has connected me to each of these locations, without a doubt, is to be able to do what I am passionate about: adding value through my work by supporting our people and the business. To this I will also add the great bonds I have developed with the different teams I have supported at these locations.“

“It makes me proud to be able to help people and support better working conditions, and it’s rewarding to see the positive changes that follow my visits to different factories. Employees often remember me and greet me when I come back to a facility, and they tell me about a time when I helped them through something in the past. To see them still working there all those years later makes me very happy!”

"My focus has been to find ways to take my responsibilities within the operations to new heights. My contributions are often recognized in the decision-making process of our operation. The work environment in Bangladesh is very friendly and I collaborate with a great team.”

“It’s great working here. We’re almost like a family. I like how you can get to know and work closely with everyone on your shift.”

“What I like most about working at Gildan is the family like atmosphere we have here. When I come to work, I am not just surrounded by co-workers but also friends. Even when we have bad days it’s not so bad because I have great co-workers that will help me get the job done”

“What I like most about Gildan is the people that I work with and the challenges I get to troubleshoot through my job. I’ve been here for seven years now, and I enjoy working!”
