Pros

50% off clearance sometimes, plus 10% employee discount, so you can get some stuff really cheap and sell it online to supplement the poverty level income you make working at Staples!

Cons

Limit hours of all employees so they don't have to pay them full time benefits like the average service worker in this country deserves. Bloated salaries at the very top, Assistant GM's barely make of $40k and they run the stores. General Managers on upwards make double, it's insane. District Managers have daily conference calls which consist of an hour of ranting. This company now operates by stepping on backs of its newly created class of poor part time workers and just racks in billions.

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!
