Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"I enjoyed working for the company. They provided some exceptional opportunities."

"The company places value on their employees and tries to maximize their talents. I had a variety of roles with Office Depot moving me into roles that exercised my current talents and stretched me to learn more."

"The company today is lacking a direction that is communicated. It seems that many departments are in survival mode with what they know best but I am not sure that is the same direction the executive leadership is moving."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"They should communicate their long term goals for the company and present a strategic direction as to how they are going to get there. They should develop a better approach to listen to their employees. Additionally the company should work to bring all groups together and establish a unified approach to the business."
