Armed robbers who tied up Colchester store staff have struck twice before, a concerned employee has claimed.
Staples, in Cowdray Avenue, Colchester, was raided by two men wielding a knife and a gun last week.
Police are still hunting the pair who tied up the staff and left with a large amount of cash.
A member of staff, who asked not to be named said: "This is the third such armed robbery by the same team in six weeks on Staples stores. They seem to be targeting us, yet little is being done by head office to protect stores."
They said stores were struck in Cambridge and Ashford, Kent.
A firm spokesman said he was unable to comment on security as they were in consultation with police.
