Dear colleague, Thank you for your excellent review! We aim to be a Great Place to Work and to be an Employer of Choice and it seems we reached this goal during your time with us. We are pleased to read that you appreciate the flexible working conditions and pay. We believe that flexibility plays a key role in helping employees balance their personal and professional lives, and we are proud to offer this as part of our commitment to well-being. We also appreciate your honest feedback on career progression. Growth paths can sometimes feel challenging, and we encourage open conversations with managers about development opportunities, skill building, and next steps. Even when full promotions aren’t immediately available, increasing responsibilities, training, and development plans can support continued growth. Thank you for your ongoing efforts and dedication to us. Best wishes to Brussels! Your DHL Team
