Staples

I took a job at the Portland fulfillment center right out of high school in 08 and was hired PART TIME. The job is extremely fast paced and stressful for a couple of reasons, however at the time pay was very competitive in the market. 

-PART TIME equated to 40+ hour work weeks with no full time benefits whatsoever. My manager at the time had the audacity to ask me if I even wanted my job after I was always volunteering my hours to be cut on slow days. Listen here lady, I wanted part time for a reason and was overworked pushing 50+ hours a week in peak seasons because managers are too good to step in and help pickers. I had a life outside of Staples and when I was ACTUALLY part time, it worked out really well. My life soon became nothing but eat, sleep and staples which is not condusive to a healthy work-home lifestyle. 
I was too new to the job world to realize just how much abuse someone should and should not be taken when employed. These people pushed it. 

-LACK OF ADEQUATE, CARING LEADERSHIP made days long and even more stressful. Always being pushed to move faster and do more when there's an absolute threshold for how much your own machinery will take before you've overloaded the system. Your machines will hold approx 800 boxes before shutting down? Okay, maybe keep remembering that when you now have 900+ and bark at your pickers to pick faster because you need to put more boxes on the line and the cut off time for your freight trucks are quickly approaching. It's called a threshold for a reason. Stop pushing it. 
Here's an idea: If you know you're pushing high volume, and you know you are based off previous year sales, maybe start your associates earlier in the day and have more shifts to cover your busiest hours when orders drop. Start working toward an acceptable solution that doesn't wear out your people. Morale drops quick when you don't care.
And while you're at it, drop the "I'm management and better than you" act. Even your leads had the mentality and only helped everyone else out when it was convenient for them, someone higher up was watching and it made them look good, or were angry enough that the associate needed help. Proactive leadership shouldn't make anyone else there feel inadequate at their job. Jumping in no matter the work load is a HUGE morale booster. It gives an opportunity for leadership to build a rapport with the picking associates and morale is boosted. This is a foreign concept. 

-FLEXIBILITY AND COMPASSION don't exist. You have a family 
crisis or an emergency problem? Well you better figure it out buddy and heaven help you if you miss work. These days there are programs in place to help workers keep their jobs while pushing through a tough time with job security regardless of PTO/sick days. Even TARGET has support for their associates. Not so much when I worked at Staples. 
If you are injured at this place? Here's an ice pack and get back to work. Even if you're hit in the head with a box that's over a foot above you that came careening down and hits you face first. No real first aid. No real attention to potential trauma. Ice pack. How do I know? It happened to me personally and had a headache the rest of the day with no reprieve. 
Get people trained in legitimate first aid for crying in the night. 

SAD EXCUSE OF A BREAK AND MICROMANAGEMENT of your bladder. Your break starts the second they announce your shifts break. Nevermind the fact in some sections of the warehouse it's a 5 minute walk to the break room. Nope. No full break for you! While they say laws in the area allow for a 10 minute break, they "give you" 15 to make up for that travel time. 2.5 to get there from the picking area and 2.5 to get back. That does NOT include the time it takes someone to get from their quality center on the other half of the warehouse. Generous? Not really. You are part of the herd. You leave with the herd at the bell, you better return on time with the herd or you WILL be questioned. 
And heaven help you if you have to "go" and you're ANYWHERE within an hour of your break needing to use the restroom. With the whole culture of staying hydrated, did management perhaps overthink the fact you'll have to use the restroom more? 
You bet your sweet bippy they did! It is fully expected of you to use the bathroom on your breaks only and use the restroom during "working hours" sparingly, barring any medical issue previously brought up to management's approval. It's nearly impossible when the majority of the workers are ladies who need to go once break hits. You end up waiting in queue to go and then break is over. Get back to work. No putting your feet up. 
Good gracious, I just left high school and now we're back to elementary children type thinking. We're adults. Let us at least use the restroom when our bodies say we need to and figure it out. 

Ultimately if you have no life, need to be controlled like a remote controlled robot, and need a "well paying job"- which at the time was admittedly competitive for the area- to run around picking product for a warehouse that can't get their act together, go for it. Just know that there is no job security and your as replacable as a light bulb. There are better places to be than here.

A typical workday is being micromanaged by insecure, inadequate, and unqualified managers who are only there to carry out useless strategies to make the company a lot of money meanwhile making every effort to pay you as little as possible. They pick these managers because they can pay them as low as possible because most likely they did not have the minimum education to lead a team.They just need a stooge to carry out directives that won't complain. However, they have the favoritism of upper management that led them to be chosen. Constantly being bombarded with useless and ineffective meetings is nerve-racking. 
This is a very high stress, monotonous, soul and creativity-draining job. Management is not emotionally equipped to manage taking gum out of a wrapper but, will do everything possible to avoid supporting you. Nepotism and favoritism are the norm and microaggressions are the status quo. The whole faux support of diversity is insulting and reeks of gaslighting. They pay the lowest in the industry and that is if they do not figure out a way to "adjust" your CVO and your commission. Meanwhile, the performance reviews that they picked apart  will ensure that they will rate you as low as possible to avoid paying you that extra 14 cents per hour. Pay is not on par with the cost of living and struggling financially to live while working at Staples is real. If you are a single person with no spouse, no responsilibilties or children, you could possibly be okay with a meager living. Those same associates who barely met the daily metrics were rewarded and at times promoted, while the employees who did meet the expectaions set, they somehow were overly micromanaged. This goes back to some of the employees had it a lot easier and smoother than others. 

There was a lack of support during COVID especially when many were furloughed to a reduction in hours of either 50%, 25%, or completely at 100%. Meanwhile, you still worked as if it was 40 hours at a 50% and 25% hours reduction. They sent out a bogus letter to us so we could get UE and it was all a way to pacify us and it was relatively useless in getting any federal money. The huge question is, did the company receive federal COVID money while the employees' struggled? They have the tendency to show the employees that they do not care about them and management will turn on you, in a heartbeat to cover themselves. All the while associates are not getting any commission and stopping CVO. Repeatedly misleading about incentives to keep employees on a string and the employee  has hopes of actually making a livable wage.
They say that you have the ability to move up in the company. It is supposed to be based on education and experience (that is advertised for that position) but instead, it is based on who likes you and how much of a company person you are willing to bend to be. Some definitely have it a lot easier than others and are moved up without any effort on their part. Other employees have to jump over mountains, shadow to get even get an intitial interview. They will have you go through a few interviews and they have already chosen the person for that position because, they were highly refered by a friend inside that department. Although, they have not met the minimun qualifications to be hired for that position. 
 Turnover is extremely high because the toxic and stressful culture is overwhelming. There is always the reminder that you are dispensable and there is a consistent threat of being let go. The constant intro of "pilot programs" that magically disappear after a few months mirrors the staff who are moved or are hired for those roles. Make sure you get everything in writing, read the company's policies, the healthcare policy in its entirety and the employee handbook. 
If you want a rewarding future, employer support, noticed for your actual performance and want stability this is not the company for you! The most enjoyable part is when I quit for my sanity, mental peace, and better financial stability for my family.  After leaving my health, mind, body and spirit dramatically improved.

Terrible company to work for. I worked there for 2 years at the beginning it seemed fine nothing too special, they keep advertising about their excellent training but in reality their training is basically you sitting on a chair for 8 hours reading repetitive stuff and answering quizzes and then they throw you on the sales floor to learn by yourself as you go, they suck up to customers so much that they created a loophole were regular customers would come back to the store to shop either return or destroy merchandise just because they know they can since the managers don't want to anger anyone 
 even going as far as to brake or bend rules just to get a happy survey, if that sounds like terrible management and terrible way to run a business  to you well that's just scratching the surface for example the store was ran so bad that we didn't had supplies and sometimes would ran out of supplies for days or a week not because they weren't available but because management didn't care until the last minute at one point we literally had no bags for customers or paper for their print orders but they didn't order anything until the day they finally had to and they would put pressure on us saying we need to increase sales even though we don't have control over customers not coming back because they notice the store was so badly ran. The Co-workers i had were great and amazing people to work with but The management is useless they don't listen to workers and if you report anything to HR they will reply but do nothing. it's like they cover each others backs to avoid bringing attention to their failures although I'm sure they'll get caught eventually because some of the stuff they're doing is illegal in not even sure if I'm allow to post it here so i won't risk it i want people to read the review to hopefully save people the headache of working here . Nobody i worked with there were working there for the company they were working there for the kind co-workers who treated each other like family we reported our managers several times for not doing his job, verbally harassing us telling us that we didn't do our jobs well enough or talking bad things about us behind our backs to other managers who then told us because they didn't thought it was fair. we also reported serious problems we had about racism, sexism  and harassment to HR and they did not and eventually ignore us. Many of the good people eventually quit leaving us with the bad people, we started getting un-trained managers who eventually just quit and we couldn't keep people long enough because nobody was getting properly trained and it was putting too much pressure on new people so they eventually left we had problems with customers stealing and we were blamed for it as if we told them to shoplift or steal. the way they schedule people was all over the place with no thought put into it so we would have a lot of people working when it was slow and we had nothing to do and only a few people working when we were extremely busy. the list of bad things is so long that it's embarrassing.

I worked at Staples for 2 years. When I started, I had a pretty good management team that started becoming better and better. Despite this, they have rather annoying selling quotas for minimum wage work. Sales managers are in charge of keeping those numbers strong, and at the locations I worked at, they often had employees track their insurance add-ons and rewards sign ups on a piece of paper. They used to push us into selling credit cards, while doing a terrible job of explaining that, but they've stopped pushing for that as much. And when I say a terrible job, I mean I didn't even realize I was selling a credit card!

They give you training on a computer for about 3 days but they try to teach you the real important stuff later on, so the computer training isn't great.

I got transferred to the copy and print center after about a year. I got paid fairly in my home town, as they raised my wages by about 75 cents per hour. But when I transferred to another store, which struggled in a rural area, I worked the copy print center exclusively- for straight minimum wage. The min wage went up while I was working there, so when my manager failed to add back the 75 cent raise I'd earned, I promptly left that store. I transferred back to my hometown where I got my raise but the management team was a shell of what it once was, so I didn't stay long.

They do offer some coverage options to part time workers, I had dental coverage for about 5 dollars out of every paycheck. But I never used it, the copays are ridiculous, and I wouldn't recommend it if you have other options.

Cashier work for this company is mundane, I only enjoyed it because I met so many different people in the community. Copy print work can be very stressful, it's a lot to learn, but it can be a lot more fun than cashiering. It also has a lot more areas for errors, and your team having your back can make or break a shift.

Break and lunch schedule breaks down like this: 5 hour shift or less, just a 15 minute break. 6 hour shifts have to clock out carefully if they choose a break over a lunch. 8 hour shifts get two breaks and a lunch. Breaks feel pretty imbalanced depending on your shift length. I've seen some employees, especially in copy print, skipping breaks entirely. Some dedicated workers even work through their lunch, which I'm sure is super illegal.

Considering working in tech? Consider literally every other place first. Staples doesn't pay on comissions at all. It's like somehow they expect a piece of paper tracking sales goals to motivate good tech sales. Sure, tech employees get a base pay raise, but from what I've been told, it's not much.

Floor employees will often get called up to help cashiers during busy rushes. Customers in the store will ask you any kind of question if they see you, so even if you work in the stressful Copy print department, you're expected to have some floor knowledge.

Employees communicate via a kind of walkie-talkie system, I call it a radio system although I think the first description is more accurate. You'll wear an ear piece all day, although you can swap from ear to ear at your leisure.

Overall, I would recommend this job to first time employees, but not much else.

The Staples store located in Buford, Georgia is a strange one. It is often the guinea pig for the company's trials and experiments, while also being a high-volume store that generates a lot of revenue. Because it is technically retail, a lot of younger people are hired throughout the year as they need temporary jobs while in high school, college, or in-between jobs. There are some long-term employees (reading 10-15 years!), but most of the associates are younger than 30.

There are three main sections: copy & print center, easy tech, and office supplies. Copy & print creates... copies and prints for customers. Brochures, documents, posters, pictures, etc. are created daily. It is one of the most stressful sections of the store because of how many orders they get and how fast they have to finish them with the lack manpower and machinery to do it efficiently. Office supplies consists of selling furniture and supplies for offices and schools. The hardest part of their job is helping customers that do not know what they are looking for and doing freight throughout the day while helping customers. 

As an employee that works in the easy tech section, there is a lot to say about it. Easy tech has two main jobs: to fix and sell computers and other electronic devices. I am the main tech, so I spend most of my part-time hours fixing hardware and software related issues with computers. I also try to help customers find what printers, computers, tablets, or other electronics they need for their businesses or everyday lives, but as the lead tech, I spend more time behind the counter making sure computers are fixed correctly. 

I started out with good pay (above minimum wage) and this location is VERY flexible with hours (especially if you are attending school). Staples (as a company) really cares about customer satisfaction, and sometimes so much so it makes it hard for the employees to stand up to the customers who cause issues. And it sometimes makes our other duties (freight, planograms, cleaning) hard to accomplish because the customer should always be our number one concern. It is a great policy (for customers), but there are customers who take advantage of this and waste our time, making our day harder than necessary. 

Local management is great, but the higher ups put a lot of pressure on the store managers, thus making them put pressure on their supervisors, and thus, the regular employees. Protection plans and making sales are pushed while there are no immediate benefits to the employees for making the goals. In general, human beings need incentive to go out of their way to do things when they are not specifically listed as duties to be completed in the job description. 

Overall, Staples is not a bad company to work for. I have worked for larger retail chains (less concerned with customer service) that treated me worse (less pay, more work) and also at fast food (same issue, while also getting dirty). If you are interested in working with computers, easy tech is a great way to get experience with Windows hardware and software. Copy and print is a great way to get used to printing hardware and how to format images and documents. Office supplies is pretty much like any other retail establishment.

If you are a beginner, this is not the place to start working. 

Working at Staples requires years of retail experience. 

*Unloading trucks
*Operating Pallet Jacks
*Lift at least 40lbs or more
*Work in a fast-paced environment
*Properly stocking shelves
*Answer phones/radio equipment
*Work under pressure for reaching sales goals
*Cash customers out at a decent pace

The issue I have with Staples is that you get paid close to minimum wage, regardless of experience; unless you work in management. As a dedicated sales associate with Staples for 5 years, I only get paid $9.40 an hour and my manager said I cannot get a raise higher than that for the rest of my career unless I move to management. 

This may vary among stores, but management is poor at my store, specifically by the Store Manager. The General Managers seem to be in more control than the store manager. My manager is not very friendly and tends to belittle every worker as if it's their first day on the job (no matter how long of experience). I also do not get feedback from the store manager on how we're doing, therefore every day I work, I feel I do not meet expectations from the store manager.

These days, a lot of retail associates are lazy and often call out. This was the case at my Staples, so be prepared to be short-staffed often. Management rarely attempts to call someone in for backup in case a particular person calls out.

This job is high maintenance, especially during Back to School Season. Every employee starting at Staples should be aware of Back-to-School Season, which is basically Christmas time for Staples. It's the busiest time of the year, lots of cleanup/recovery involved, very demanding teachers as customers. However, the payroll increases, allowing room for more hours. 

Be prepared to meet sales goals EVERY DAY. If you work in Easy Tech, Staples will pressure you to push customers into protection plans for technology products, including computers, printers, keyboards, mice & shredders. 

As a sales associate, I am pressured every day to sell protection plans on Chairs, Calculators & Backpacks/Briefcases. You must meet the protection plan criteria every week, or you will get penalized for it when it comes to your associate review day.

The two reasons I stayed with Staples for 5 years are

1. My coworkers are like family. I've gotten along with just about everybody on the store team, except for a few managers. I've been good friends with my coworkers for my entire 5 year career. My coworkers have my back whenever I'm feeling down or struggling with a task. Your coworkers are there every step of the way, same with the General Managers. Not the store manager.

2. They are very accommodating with my second job's schedule. Depending on how long you've been with Staples, and after your 90 day probation period, you will be fairly accommodated for days off and for a second job's schedule if you have one.

Bottom line is, you are pressured to meet sales criteria every day you work, with poor management for next to minimum wage. 

I would not recommend working here unless you have years of retail experience. I wouldn't recommend it to a friend either.

I have been in outside sales for 14 years. I took the position with Staples Advantage because my other company was not growing but, losing year after year (bad management, and poor position in the advertising arena)
Staples Way, training is a complete joke. You sit in classroom with trainers that really teach you nothing about the company or product and teach the 1970"s Feel, Felt, Found. It was brutal. The worst part of the training you are made to share a hotel room with a complete stranger for the entire time you are there. Isn't this an HR, nightmare?
When you get back to your territory you have little to no support unless it's a mandatory team role play or a company training on product which I found beneficial.
When you travel again you will be made to share a hotel room, to save $70.00 for the company. I have never in my career been made to do this. If you make waves about it, you will be called in and raked over the coals, of why it is a big deal to you. So you spend entire 48 hours with a co-worker, that might snore, have bad hygiene.etc. A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE!!
Let's get to the commission: WORST PAYOUT I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. You will get a subsidy for one year that is a sliding scale, after that you make nothing. So, for the first year you will make the most money. Your subsidy starts out at 1,000 for the first 3 months and goes down from there. The commissions are based on margin. You will find when you get out in the field it is all about cost in winning your accounts (most of the time then not) you can have an opening order of for ex: $7,000 and you will make, if your lucky $150.00. Keep in mind most opening orders are around the $200.00 dollar range.
Remote areas are the worst. If you are interviewing in one of those areas do yourself a favor and find another job. The problem is Staples has saturated a lot of their markets (good for them, not for you) so, you fight your own company. They own Quill, so you cannot touch those accounts. Staples.com, can't touch those accounts. You have Quill reps, stealing from your territory and Staples.com telemarketers calling in your area. It is a complete mess, to say the least.
One of the most frustrating parts of the job is you more then likely will report to a manager that is fresh out of college and in their 20's. with no experience, at all.Yes they deserve a chance too, but they just aren't seasoned enough to work out in the field for a year or sometimes less and because they are willing to relocate they get the job.
I am still in this nightmare of a job, being micromanaged and fighting to get their 2 wins they want a week, 50 mailers per week and a mandatory call day once a week. This can all be digested but, they do monitor how many calls you make on call day. If you just make say 60 calls but, get to the 8 appointments they want, you will be called out on not making enough calls. It is micromanaging to the extreme.
The team that I am on, all of us have been with the company for less than one year. This should speak volumes. My whole team is looking for a new job. No room for advancement so you will be stuck in a dead end job, with minimal pay and micromanaged to death!
Wish you luck if you're reading this and I hope to gain another job sooner than later.

It is easy enough to get a job. Say you can do what you are told. Wait through three days of training videos. The worst interviewer for the company will actively try to intimidate you. The best response is to laugh at his ridiculousness. He made a few people cry. I'm not convinced it is ethical. He says things like "this is a hard job," and "I don't think you can handle it."

Life balance? HA! There is no balance. For such a low pay job an intense manager will try to bully and manipulate you into putting effort into tasks they have purposely over-inflated. Everything will take fifteen minutes. I can think of several days where the fifteen minute job took me all day if not two days. A project that would take eventually take a week would surprise the manager each time it wasn't done. All four managers could be surprised a project isn't done, twice a peace. I'm surprised it doesn't dawn on them that they are incompetent. 

There is also a trick they do that I am sure isn't legal. In an eight hour shift a person should have three breaks. Two fifteen minutes and a lunch. There is a trick where the manager will hold off or forget about breaks until four or five hours into the shift. Then, they will tell people to go on the half hours and give them no other breaks. If you ask for a break, they'll ask "do you think you deserve it?"

There is a common practice with holding employees for an hour or two after work. I stayed after four days in a row to "finish" things five days in a row. One night was until midnight, three hours after close. 

The other employees may be nice but if they have been in long then they have lost sense of reality. I have seen people in a panic over "numbers." 

The best part of the job might be the website because it is so hilariously bad. The search engine has problems that haven't occurred sense the nineties. It is faster to google a product and include staples in the search than it is to go to staples website and search for it. They'll say "You have to be precise in your search" but that means the engine sucks.

I hear about corporate, a lot. One of them sticks to a "sixty-twenty" rule. Ten percent of people will say yes to anything. Ten percent will shut you down with no. The other eighty percent can be persuaded. The surprise and denial from people when their ideas for what works is smacked by reality. They get aggressive with each other.

The company is hemorrhaging money. They come up with constant plans and sales displays and trumpet how everything they tried before was stupid and this is the coming light from on high. I cannot begin to guess how much they spend on new selling behaviors and sweeping policy changes. 

There is more to say but it is too much. It takes a stupid person to work for staples for longer than a few months. Don't get stuck. If you are reading this and work for them, find an exist now. A few months extra can turn into a few years all too fast. Staples hires thousands of employees because it is a bad employer. It squeezes all the life it can from you and avoids having to pay you anything decent. They don't care. They are sick.

Management is the weakest point with Staples. At the 'local level' half of the management team has some level of contempt or outright disdain for employees (yes, they make sure to have that awful single ply toilet paper in the bathrooms), and the other half are either powerless or afraid to make any changes. Higher up managers will occasionally visit, but are absolutely clueless about what's going on day to day (almost as if they're willfully ignoring the daily reports), then complain we're slacking off right before flying back to HQ.

Take their most recent stroke of genius as an example: They passed down a new decree telling us we can't wear a high visibility vest while out on the road, even though we're heading into the part of the year with longer nights and shorter days. Why? Because it's not a part of our uniform.

When it comes to work life balance, it was okay at the start, but has gotten worse over time. There used to be a time limit on a day to day basis on how long we were out delivering for, but that's gone now, and no, our work loads aren't lighter to offset the difference (but don't worry, I'm sure DOT won't mind). Even before that though, management cut the number of employees that could use PTO on any given day in half. Meaning, instead of letting 4 people take a day off at any point on the calendar, only 2 can. Oh, and no, no matter how large the delivery team gets, management will not increase the number of folks who can take time off. If you need a day off, the only way to do so is to plan it out about 2-3 months ahead of time. That is, if you want a full week off, or at least a long weekend. If you're looking to take a random Wednesday or Thursday off, that only requires about 3 weeks of planning, on average. This is all an average estimate, and can change with the ebb and flow of how well staffed they are; more people working means more time planning, and less time off. The other option, of course, is to call out sick.

But be prepared, managers love complaining about people calling out sick, and will make sure to let everyone that showed up know "your work load is heavier because of them, and the folks that took time off." Then they'll give the "doesn't matter if you don't feel like coming into work, you just gotta show up" pep talk. Because the best way to boost team moral is to kick them while they're down. I wonder why turnover is so freaking high. Huh, guess we'll never know.

There is a silver lining to this brooding cloud though. Training (by some divine miracle) goes above and beyond here, maybe not down to the details of where to deliver at each location (though they do try, but if all else fails, ask the customers, they'll help you). For overall job duties though, really, it's the best I've seen to date. Another positive some folks seem to fawn over is that they hire from within, so new managers are former team members. I have no idea how it's a positive though, based on what I've experienced. Something is very wrong with management here.

Overall, it's an average corporation; you get what you sign up for. At least, you think you do. Lol.

This company does not treat its employees correct. They get walked on by customers to avoid complaints. Get yelled at for numbers when they are set to high to meet. Get overworked and told to do other peoples jobs. NOT PAID ENOUGH. Staples needs to pay their people for they actually do. Management visits the stores and does nothing when they know things are wrong. The only reason I am working here for so long is that I do not want to put more stress on my coworkers. My coworkers are the only enjoyable part of the job. We all work for the horrible company together and I do not want to leave them stranded. For the copy center department, you get no training hours to learn or teach new employees. You pretty much have to figure it out on your own. Meaning you have to get everything done before you leave if you know what you're doing because it can not be left for other people. But the thing is you can not go over hours for the week because they can not pay overtime. Copy center department is very stressful. Never enough staff to help the number of customers. You have to be able to multitask because you have to do everything without getting complaints, get all the customers print jobs done, help customers fax and scan, and take in print jobs. The company is also making the printing department call the customers a minimum of 4 hours out of the week to ask how their printing orders went. So that's 4 hours off the floor. They are making us be telemarketers, but no extra pay is added. Then there are weekly 1 hour meetings that we basically get yelled at for not doing good enough or if there are other stores doing better then you, you have to listen to how much better they are doing then your store. This puts you in a bad mood cause they constantly just tell you how bad you are at your job. The management or corporate I don't even think can do all the work that I do, but they sure get paid more than I do. There are a few full-time positions available. With so many people working and wanting promotions only a few people get them. The rest of the people are promised they will get promoted and never do. Stores mostly have younger age workers in the stores because of the pay. Staples needs to increase their pay and they might get better people to work in the stores. All the good employees realize that the money is not worth the work and stress that Staples puts you under. You do your own job and other peoples job, but you don't even get paid enough for your own. The customers run the store. If they complain they get coupons. Working in the copy department is horrible. You basically have to do everything for the customer even if it is not a service that "Staples" provides, you have to figure it out and get the job done. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY!!! Unfortunately, I am still a current employee because I have friends I work with and I do not think the place would be able to function with another employee leaving.
