Hello, We are thrilled to read your wonderful review of your experience as Head of US Partnerships and Projects with us! It’s fantastic to hear that you enjoyed collaborating with such talented individuals during your time here. We’re excited that you acknowledged our dedication to innovation in e-commerce and logistics. However, we’re a bit puzzled by your mention of "disrupt" as a positive aspect – while we strive to improve and innovate, disrupting the hard work we’ve put in is not our intention. We appreciate your candidness regarding work-life balance; it’s an area we are consistently working to enhance for all our team members. Your insights are incredibly valuable as we continue to evolve and grow. Thank you for your contributions to our organization and for sharing your positive experience. We wish you all the best in your future pursuits and hope you carry cherished memories of your time with us. Your DHL Team
