Pros

The pro of working at Staples in Cranberry was without a doubt the great team of co-workers as well as most of the customers that entered the store. A great place for a tech with little or no experience to start until they get some experience or a real job. Also a good place for computer hobbyists to work (since that is what they normally hire).

Cons

Staples is a company that promotes advantage. What I mean by that is they will promote anything that is to their advantage while using the employees like toilet tissue. They are a company that cannot make up their mind as to whether they are a copy center, office supply store, or a cheap version of Best Buy. They will offer opportunity to move up but fall short with the follow through after they lay a list of demands at your feet. You will be repeatedly lied to due to in store politics as well as micro-management. In general they are a waste of time for any college leveled or experienced techs.

Pros

It's a good place to start if you want to get into a tech and/or retail position, since it has you get a grip on both.

Cons

Sometimes the customers are less than willing to listen to what you have to say and can be greatly uninformed when it comes to computer concepts.

Pros

Management was friendly at my location. They tried to look at as much as they could for their employees; however, still showing authority. Was pretty flexible on the work schedules.

Cons

Pressure from higher level managers (DMs) was pretty stringent. Were really no effective plans from DM to stores about things that stores could do.
