      Not what expected, hit or miss Management.

      Pros

      You'll definitely get hours. Lots opportunities for machine experience and advancement in Supply Chain. I work for DHL Supply Chain whole COVID-19 is in full swing and our warehouse worked 80 hours a week sometimes 7 days a week. They hire from within way more often. Opportunities to move up and around if you're skilled enough.

      Cons

      Varies from warehouse to warehouse but management is lacking. Most supervisor and Managers protect each other and play obvious favorites. They also hire fresh out of college people who don't know what a barcode (LPN, SKU, UI) is. If you can't perform, you won't get a chance to drive other equipment. You have to prove you're a hard worker before you are allowed to operate other equipment. No pay raise for operating more skilled equipment. Everyone starts at a base rate, which is much lower than other supply chains and even tops out at a lower rate than other supply chain or logistics industries START employees.

      Thank you for taking the time to evaluate our company in these busy times. It is important to us that the superiors in our teams always have an open ear for each of their employees in order to clarify possible problems in an individual, personal discussion. We very much regret that you are not satisfied with your management. Please talk to your HR Manager to find a solution to the injustice you perceive. All the best for your future and kind regards.

      Lacking in direction

      Pros

      Able to experience on-the-ground operations and was given opportunity to work on quite-complex ideas for product growth.

      Cons

      Salary increments are a joke. They even planned to peg bonuses to company performance for junior executives. Weak leadership that didn't want to change or improve.
