Pros

Great people (mostly) Opportunities Some good initiatives Charitable foundation

Cons

Not all sites as good as others - I'm at my third site and loved the first two but most recent site looks beautiful and is well equipped but has an awful culture - I've seen people from previous sites I thought were confident and bulletproof leave through mental health and I have felt personally negative effects. I should stress though that this is NOT all sites and I returned to DHL based on my previous good experiences with them. Pay low where they can - better pay on some customer sites where they need to compete with the pay of the customer to stop employees defecting Tight with tech - hard to do jobs efficiently and can make you feel undervalued Awful payroll - had major issues with pay at more than one site

Dear colleague, Thank you for your review and the insights you shared with us and others on Glassdoor. We are happy to read you are pleased with the great colleagues, opportunities, initiatives, and charitable foundation. We appreciate your honest feedback about the different experiences per site, tight with tech and the management. A good working atmosphere and colleagues who treat each other fairly contribute to a harmonious working day. As a company, we would like to promote this in the best possible way. We are working intensively on these topics to increase employee satisfaction. Nevertheless, thank you for all your hard work and effort while working with us - we sincerely appreciate it. Best wishes, Your DHL Team

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about your experience at our Orlando site. We’re glad to read that you valued the salary, the 4x10 shift structure, and especially the relationships with your peers. At the same time, we regret the challenges you described related to senior management behavior, HR involvement, and consistency in people practices. A respectful, professional work environment where policies are applied fairly and leaders act with accountability is fundamental to our culture, and it’s clear there are areas where continued improvement is needed. To clarify, participation in company supported charitable or donation initiatives is strictly voluntary. Employees are not expected or required to contribute, and any perception of pressure is not aligned with our policies or expectations. If these initiatives were experienced differently, we would take that feedback seriously and see it as an opportunity to reflect on how our communications and practices are perceived. While we are sorry to learn that the overall culture did not meet your expectations, we appreciate you clearly outlining your concerns. Feedback like this plays an important role in ongoing reflection and improvement. Thank you for the contributions you made during your time with DHL. We wish you all the best moving forward. Best regards, Your DHL Team
