Corporate Express – “CE -- Historical Information”

Pros

excellent benefits/pay -- support and promotional growth opportunities for those who contribute to the organization -- comfortable work environment and encouragement of individuality and freedom of expression -- job requires the best effort of all and is mentally challenging. There is never a dull moment.

Cons

-- For management the workload is demanding and almost endless. Management style tends to be reactionary rather than proactive. Lots of time wasted putting out fires that never needed to be started in the first place. Communication at some levels and between some departments is poor. Often the company looks for the cheapest solution to a problem, rather than the most efficient. The result is operating systems that are not reliable and/or difficult to use.

Advice to Senior Management

None at this time; the company is in play.
