About Brooklinen
What is Brooklinen?
Brooklinen is a direct-to-consumer home and bedding brand that "was founded in 2014 with a simple belief: that comfort can bring happiness." Today it calls itself "one of the largest soft goods brands in the U.S., designing for real life and real homes with products that pair elevated quality and accessible pricing." Its assortment runs "from sheets and towels to thoughtful additions for the modern bedroom" and has "earned over 100,000 five-star reviews and recognition from Architectural Digest, Good Housekeeping, Wirecutter, and more." The company says it is "growing thoughtfully, evolving intentionally, and committed to creating a home for people who care deeply about their craft — and each other."
Where will I work?
Brooklinen is headquartered in New York, and most corporate roles are listed as "New York, New York." Its retail footprint also includes stores hiring sales associates in Philadelphia, Chicago, San Diego, Santa Monica, Washington DC and the West Village. Corporate staff work a hybrid schedule with two core in-office days (Tuesday–Thursday), and the calendar builds in remote Thanksgiving week, a remote last week of December, and up to four additional remote weeks per year with approval.
What is the Brooklinen team like?
Brooklinen frames itself as "a place where thoughtful people do" their best work, "committed to creating a home for people who care deeply about their craft — and each other." Its hiring spans business operations, site experience, design and growth-marketing roles at the New York office, alongside part-time retail associates and leads across its store network.
Work-Life Balance
Brooklinen is featured here for its half-day Fridays — specifically, year-round Summer Fridays for corporate staff. On top of that, employees get 20 vacation days (rising to 25 after five years) and a one-month paid sabbatical at five years, plus the hybrid schedule's built-in remote weeks around the holidays. (As a consumer-products company, these are corporate-office benefits.)
