"Staples provided a good environment to grow as a young professional, and gave me the tools needed to really develop my current skillset and grow new talents. Management had a strong focus on their current employees, but would often times favor other employees based on geographical location. Overall, a good workplace, great co-workers, and good compensation. Major con would be one of my direct supervisors being a bit more of a party goer than I was, which would cause issues when I didn't want to go out to bars after a long work-day (this was frowned upon in the high-pressure sales environment)."

"I worked with the company for well over a decade and found that the local management was very good, but the executive leadership at HQ did not understand, nor were they interested in knowing, what it takes to get any job done."

"I worked for STS for 7 years. In that time I learned a tremendous amount about corporate sales inclusive of strategic selling, consultative sales approach, and value added strategies. However there were significant challenges in being a tech division for an office products company in that many of the strategic initiatives held by C and director level IT management was not supported from a product and service perspective in many of those need areas."
