Pros

Decent pay, solid benefits , very nice campus.

Cons

Awful coworkers, and bad management. My first job out of college , got called 'our handicap' by one of our team members. Another one told me I wasn't good enough to work here. Little to no support for new people. Takes forever to get anything done. The work itself is just not interesting. They just dont know how to integrate new grads into their teams. New Software Developers just look else where.

Staples Response

Thanks for your feedback. We’re happy to see that you enjoy our Framingham campus – we like it too! But, we’re sorry that overall you’re not having the best experience here. No one should ever talk to another teammate in that manner and we do not condone that sort of behavior. If you’d like to share additional details around your concerns, please feel free to email talentengagement@staples.com.
