Dear colleague, We are happy about this great review! We are delighted to read that you appreciate the good pay, the friendly atmosphere with your colleagues and supervisors, and the generous time off. We also value your feedback about the night shifts and recognize that working those shifts must be difficult. We are always looking for ways to optimize work schedules and recognize the importance of work-life balance to ensure that our employees have enough rest and recuperation time to maintain their well-being. If you have any suggestions on how we can better support our employees during night shifts, we would love to hear them. Thank you for being a part of our team! Best wishes to Leipzig. Your Deutsche Post and DHL Team
