Dear colleague, Thank you for your review! We aim to be a Great Place to Work and to be an Employer of Choice. Balancing your professional and personal life can be challenging, but it's essential. Good work planning is part of a well-functioning working day and helps to reduce stress. That also has a positive effect on private life. We are pleased that we succeeded in achieving this balance with you. With an increasingly wide variety of jobs and tasks being carried out at night, it is impossible to generalise about the nature of night work. In some occupations, the night shift is a much quieter time to work. We are sorry that we have not been able to achieve that in your case. Thank you for your ongoing efforts and dedication to us. Take care and stay safe. Your Deutsche Post & DHL Team

I have a lot of good things to say about DHL. The company really cares about their talent. Benefits are good. The pay is good.

Only bad thing is the micromanaging of some supervisors.

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
