Dear colleague, Thanks for taking the time to rate DHL as an employer on Glassdoor! Also, we are grateful that you recommend us as a company to prospective jobseekers but moreover for the 9+ years of service! What an example of a yellow heart! Indeed, we value learning and development and actively encourage our employees to grow. For this reason we have countless of courses but also career development plans on our learning platforms. Your role as an HR BP is essential to keep our talent growing and where they should be. Thank you for your contributions in this direction. It is great that you have mentioned the Employee Engagement We value the input of our employees highly and having, for example, a global employee app or an Annual Employee Opinion Survey are just some of the ways we try to elicit it on an organizational level. Please note that you are also always welcome to approach your senior management with any constructive criticism or improvement suggestions and we also actively encourage this. We hope that you will remain part of our Big Yellow Family for many more years to come! All the best to you and your colleagues in Derby, Your DHL Team

Pros

I’ve learned a lot at this job that helped position me for an Elevated Opportunity at a different company.

Cons

When being trained the trainers complain about their training experiences. I’ve been told “I had to learn everything on my own” and “It’s Not My Job To Train you, Just Watch me”

Dear colleague, Thank you very much for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. It's a pity that your rating isn't positive. Our goal is that you feel respected and valued with us and that we are an employer of choice for you, in good times and in difficult times, which was not the case at your site in Palmetto. The way you have been treated influences how you manage your emotions. Our business success depends above all on the commitment and know-how of our employees. Management must be encouraged to reduce feelings of dehumanization within the organization. That is a concern to us and something we will investigate. We recommend that you discuss with your HR colleagues the topics you believe can be optimized to contribute to a better working environment and well-being. Topics must be discussed before optimization can begin. Your team spirit and dedication have helped put us where we are today: strong enough to face the future together. Stay safe, and let us know how we can help if you need support. A warm greeting to Palmetto! Your DHL Team
