Pros

Laid back, fun co-workers, cared about their employees, good benefits, it was a really good company to work for, changed management right before I left.

They didn't care if you came in late, didn't care if you missed work, always made you work around other peoples schedules for breaks, only had one cashier at a time.

Overall, Great!

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

In most cases, staples stores work as a team. It's all about team work, following the rules, and procedures to achieve maximum productivity.

Cons

Uniforms are a must! And you WILL get ink on them. And if you don't have the patience for customers who are new to technology, that can be frustrating.
