Pros

DHL "International Specialist" training is extensive and well done. Company compensation and benefits very good.

Cons

Over 45 KPIs that need to be met daily with very strict management supervision to do so.

Pros

DHL is a well recognized brand, especially outside of US. A lot of people are very competent and enjoable to work with.

Cons

Commission structure sucks. Quarter over quarter, you are only as good as your last quarter. Current sales director in the west coast is from UPS, and he believes in the big brown military method -- it does not matter how long you have been with the company and how well you performed in the past, if you are not producing this quarter, you would be put on corrective action. There are a lot of turnover in sales, no loyalty. local management all comes from overseas -- they don't really want to be here, but only use this as their next big opportunity. Strategy wise, it is very short-term. Management does not have a genuine interest on people locally.

Pros

DHL, a European corporation, provides exceptional benefits to their employees and promotes career track advancement

Cons

Equipment at this hub is outdated, broken, and unsafe. The culture is as toxic as the diesel and jet fuel fumes: red necks, misogynists, racists, homophobes/transphobes. Forget career track advancement at this location unless you're part of the good ol' boys club.
