Pros

DHL is a very attractive company to work for. Compensation and benefits meet or exceed the competition, and as the world's largest logistics company they have many opportunities throughout the world. Truly the best reasons to work at DHL are the career opportunities, compensation/benefits, and opportunity for professional growth through their internal training and quality initiatives. For example, by participating in the First Choice program you will be able to take that knowledge of how to properly treat your customers (and the DMAIC-LEAN processes as well) and apply that to any business that you may work for in the future.

Cons

There are a lot of "legacy" employees that are not in tune with the new trends in logistics in management. There is also the other side to the equation as well, supervisors/managers may know a lot about what they do but they have absolutely no leadership/people skills and cannot translate their knowledge in a mutually beneficial way to their employees. This rings especially true at some of the larger offices where the employees have seen many different name changes (From AEI, to Danzas AEI Air and Ocean, to DHL Danzas Air and Ocean, to DHL Global Forwarding...).
