Good company but politics are always there

Pros

Good company, training and benefits with DHL. There are opportunities to progress and you will find support from management if you have the right work ethic

Cons

Politics is around and if your face doesn't fit, then you will not get on even if you are great at your role. Current VP and one of the directors rule the roost in their department, and they will hinder your career if they do not support you
