Working at OfficeMax in Naperville, IL: 18 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Naperville, IL Area

"Very discriminatory company. Only supports management in all capacity to protect the company even when management (senior leadership) was a repeat offender on discrimination, bullying and harassment. They allow management to marry within the organization. Upon escalation the CEO completely ignored such a serious issue. I would recommend never shopping at the new Office Depot or working at this company. Such a horrible group of leaders, they all should be picking up garbage for a living."
