Pros

None. This company is completely awful. They will not care about you, and honestly if you could work fast food you would not only probably make more $$$ but you would also probably have a better time. The only good part of working here is co workers, which you'll have everywhere you go and would never be a reason to stay at a garbage job.

Cons

Staples will never care about you. This much was abundantly clear the longer I worked here. My boss lied to me about potential for raises and growth opportunities. Told me to wait a year for a raise. Then when this raise came around it was up to me to have customers fill out surveys in order for me to get my raise. AKA in order for Staples to care about my experience as an employee I would have to make my MANAGER money and HIS manager money, first. While I was clearly struggling with feeling like staples cant care less about me, my boss not only told me to wait for months more (when I was already burnt out), but also LAUGHED at me every single time I would have a meeting in his office. Do not trust any of the blatant lies they will tell you about potential for raises and growth. You will never get a raise and they will literally hire your replacement while purposefully treating you like garbage to get you to quit instead of being fired so they dont have to pay unemployment.

Pros

You will acquire genuinely useful AR and account management skills including Oracle, MS Office, customer support, reporting, and general O2C fundamentals. These skills will help you in future roles and look good on a résumé. To be transparent: those skills will come in handy when you’re searching for a new job later — because based on team conditions, you’ll likely be looking again within a year.

Cons

The Escalation Specialist role was originally part of the Center of Excellence (COE) and fully remote. It is no longer remote. Management relies heavily on weekly “validation” scorecards to evaluate performance. These scorecards often feel subjective and based more on opinion than actual workload, metrics, or demonstrated knowledge. They do not accurately reflect your true performance or skill level. Recognition tends to go to the same small group of individuals (primarily within Vendor Management), even though the Specialists are responsible for the majority of the day‑to‑day work and issue resolution. This creates an uneven sense of visibility and appreciation across the team. You deserve better!
