Staples Operations Manager reviews

There is little to no valuable training. The expectation is you will take a 15-30 minute online tutorial and be able to execute your role flawlessly. There is much propaganda for concern for the ethical treatment of employees, but in my own experience it is the opposite. I reported my superior for an ethics situation and the result was to move me to another store. One week later when they couldn't find another assistant to work with this manager I was moved back. This manager is still employed despite their inability to execute simple leadership functions. Unfortunately this is simply one example of a long laundry list of similar situations. This company is very fond of conference calls, which allow store managers to say what upper management wants to hear, but upper management does not go into the stores often enough to find that the store managers are not delivering on these phone call promises. The result is an under-performing district.

Lack the old time loyalty. This is common in business today.
