We’re going to reinvent how customers see us, we’re not just an office supply company, we’re so much more. “Business is Human” is our campaign and we’re going big with it! We launch some new pens, coffee, break room snacks, that’ll do it! Oh shoot, it’s too late, let’s now confuse customers and try to and go back to our old slogan from 10+ years ago, that was a hit! That will remind them we’re just an irrelevant office supply company. Oh wait…

Staples changes slogans and mission statement more often than most people change underwear. This bogus company has credible identity or clue about longterm success. Ripe for union.
@dj you can say that again! We had 1 relatable manager in Texas who got pushed out and was treated so bad by the bit@4 running the show. I saw it with my own eyes, the corporate politics has gone next level. RB needs to take back control of his center, but oh wait, he can’t because she’s doing all his dirty work and they think we’re blind to it. Man the fu@€ up!
@dj agreed! I work in Lewisville and it’s an absolute dumpster fire. Employees are miserable, the chatter about how much the worthless managers make over the reps doing the work is constant. They need to scrap these pos starting with RB and AP, they’re a little too comfortable (rumors there too). They act like the culture is phenomenal but where’s our fing money, books su-k, commissions su-k, and the drama is constant. Throw some pizza at us, but that still ain’t gonna feed our families. POS’s making over 6 figures and don’t do sh-t. Sit up there on their high horses (chairs) on their cell phones, playing games, lunch dates( however long they want) while we’re bringing lunch bc we can’t afford to eat out. I have lost all respect from the top and his right hand bit@4. Frustrated and hope this place crumbles. And don’t even get me started on the worthless external hire who can’t put a sentence together to save his life. He’s d-mber than a box of rocks. Great hire RB.
The marketing on the new easy BUTTon campaign is terrible. Did you seriously waste money on a boy band alum that no one could care less about and certainly doesn’t have any marketability at this stage of his career if you can call it a career still. I am embarrASSed for this company. The easy button never should have been canned in the first place to bring it back after all these years looks desperate and dated. I agree. And what happened to all the money you spent on the new Staples logo and branding with your previous woke coke ceo. That was also a big waste of money. How many layoffs could you have avoided if you hadn’t wasted the company profits on that nonsense. And don’t get me started on Business is Human waste of campaign. Count the numbers of people in that campaign your laid off. Again embarrassing and inept is this company and the leaders at the top running the show.
They laid off the good managers and directors already, now you’re dealing with the people that are simply there to push agendas from SLT, an SLT who doesn’t have a clue how to run the business.
Good luck to all..
At this point this company has gone down the shier, they should just sell us to Amazon or someone else that can actual run a company successfully and not sc--w over their employees with pay and constants threats of being let go. The morale in this company is the lowest i have ever seen and all the blind managers who push these stupid a-s agendas for SLT and people in positions they have no business being in need to take the corporate d* out of their mouths and stand up and start saying something.
