Pros

At the time I was working there, on the second pay check of every month, you get more money depending on the amount of ink or tech subscriptions you sold.

Cons

Office Depot attracts crazy customers doing things at the last minute. The pay doesn't feel worth dealing with them. Especially since as a "sales associate" you're really doing everything in the store depending on what they need that specific day.

Pros

There are no pros to working for this company.

Cons

Low pay, grueling hours, unsafe and toxic work environment. The company does not offer opportunities for its sore employees to advance to the corporate sector; especially if you have a college degree. As a store employee neither you, your expertise and skill set, nor your ideas on how to improve workflow and company culture matter.
