Pros

Easy interview, free candy, watch tv all day at work, lax culture, sandals no dress code

Cons

The culture is horrible not a proffesional environment. New people will never succeed. The sales manager is too busy to help anyone you can also tell he doesn't care at all reminds me of a beaten dog. The branch president works part time and his only contribution to the office is "how we did things in Ann Arbor" he wears sandals and calls them his Jesus sandals. I asked an employee how I reach HR and the advised its pointless HR is part of the good ol boys club. They don't investigate issues they just sweep them under the rug. If the rest of the company runs like this they won't last long. The president is on his cell phone all day he won't help anyone he tells his sales manager to F off when he asked for help

Pros

XPO is creating a strong name brand and has the ability to provide customers with end-to-end services.

Cons

- There are significant acquisition pains that has frustrated customers and employees. - Core values are just words and do not align to managements' behaviors/actions. - It's ALL about money and the culture is cut throat. XPO is basically ran by a private equity team. - Even the most basic decisions have to go through upper-management, yet a core value is to be "Entrepreneurial" - The non-competes are an absolute joke in how restrictive they are and people with talent are walking out the door because of it. Yet, XPO continues to say "We love our employees." Actions > Words. - XPO is building a great 5-year company, but a terrible 15-year company. - Communication from the top is abysmal. It's always positive, always. This is despite customers leaving, bonuses being cut, and talent leaving in droves. It lacks any substance and the front-line people know it. - And the chants...forcing grown adults to chant "We Love XPO!" (while being filmed) feels more akin to a cult than a professional logistics organization. - The amount of frivolous lawsuits XPO has open is astounding. They try to bully individuals/competitors into submission and you constantly have to watch your back. - Every division is given numbers they have to hit, and with the cut-throat culture, divisions are actively trying to thwart customer needs and company-wide success in order to hit them. Not sustainable.

Pros

It has Decent pay and Benefits.

Cons

No balance between work and home life. Middle management sucks. They treat you horribly and you are always spoken down to. You are set up to fail and help is not provided. You are thrown out with minimal training and left alone to sink or swim.
