Pros

Office Depot respects a person's need to have a life outside of work, even if you are a manager. A five day workweek, with overtime after 40 hours is a rare thing for managers these days. Even the assistant managers work about 45 hours and get two days off (at least in my state).

Cons

It's retail, and of course that means inconvenient hours, especially for those with families. Other than that it's not all that different from other retail jobs. Also, if you work in the technology retail world expect a big push to become sales oriented. This is certainly true today.

Pros

You might get to work with good people. Office Depot requires a lot of communication and team effort, so it's easy to get to know your coworkers.

Cons

The utter incompetence of corporate management is astounding. Policy changes, poor program implementations (and cancellations), hideously stupid incentives, and unreasonable expectations make many associations wonder if corporate knows anything about the stores.
