Pros

Opportunities to travel with the company, for instance work a few months in another DHL site doing what you usually do (exchange programs). Good work enviroment. Stability.

Cons

Low payment, at least in Costa Rica most of the companies can pay more than DHL. Few opportunities to develop your skills and remain motivaded (again for Costa Rica).

Pros

- Decent starting pay and benefits considering how easy it is to get hired - Pretty casual environment, people are generally cool and helpful - Easy and rewarding work once you get your footing, that you don't have to take home - Good sense of camaraderie and working towards a common goal - Co-workers often notice and appreciate hard work (even if the supervisors don't)

Cons

- Depending on the schedule they give you, you could end up working mornings one day then nights the next. Keeps your sleeping habits constantly in flux - High turnover, so you're often picking up the slack from new people who are having to learn as they go thanks to inadequate training - Disconnected leads who will remove people from an area and send them somewhere else if the volume happens to be low for a moment, then when it picks back up you're undermanned - Very little chance for upward mobility, despite what the recruiters say - Top pay for a package handler is pretty low, and in the amount of time you have to stick around to reach it you could go to college and get a better job
