Experience shows when a workplace is no longer worth staying. - Ocean Freight Manager GEODIS Employee Review

Spent over 11 years at GEODIS, most recently as Ocean Freight Manager (Procurement). Long enough to understand the system and its gaps. Over time, the lack of proper processes became increasingly evident. Decisions often feel inconsistent, with outcomes that don’t always align with performance or contribution. This creates an environment where clarity is limited and expectations shift depending on the situation. There is also a noticeable imbalance in how opportunities and recognition are distributed, raising concerns around fairness and transparency. More concerning is the standard of professionalism within certain leadership levels. Communication does not always reflect the level of discretion and integrity expected, with behaviors that at times resemble informal discussions rather than constructive, professional engagement. This can erode trust and set the wrong tone for the wider team. HR, unfortunately, does not function as a strong support system. Concerns raised are not always addressed in a meaningful or timely manner, leaving employees to navigate challenges largely on their own.
