Pros

Good pay, and good health benefits.

Cons

Good pay only if you are and benefits only if your working, DHL love to hire on call people and when they say on call....Its really on call. One month you have health benefits, and pay is good.. The next month your struggle to make ends meat, and your on cobra for $600 a month. DHL love keeping Wall Street (Slave Drivers Of The System) happy. It's not right that a company that Profits BILLIONS and BILLIONS. Can't even keep its worker Health benefits going month to month. Can't even give a minimum weekly pay..

Pros

Training was enjoyable, good shift

Cons

Once you leave training, there is ZERO support once you hit the floor, when you ask for help, people seem really annoyed and don't want to help you, no consistency amongst agents/mgrs/leads when asking questions. Big emphasis on sales... which is a pain. You are not empowered to help customers
