3 years ago I got to start my career with Staples as an account manager and loved every minute of it. Throughout my journey I mastered the systems, was praised for my hard work, always met quota and KPI’s, trained new employees, but every time I applied for a promotion it would go to the employees that I trained who hadn’t even been with the company for a year. It was truly a slap in the face that you work hard, but unless you’re kissing a–, your hard work doesn’t matter. I was NEVER given a raise in the 3 years that I worked there, yet got amazing scores on all my reviews. The company culture is not what it use to be. You’re only a number working for them. I took my talent elsewhere and I’m happy that I did. The stress and anxiety this job caused me was not worth is.

Poor leadership and that is why the company is failing miserably!
