Pros

The pay is very competitive with other like companies. Benefits are also competitive and one of the strongest assets that DHL provides.

Cons

The work environment is extremely stressful, with upper management seemingly out of touch or unwilling to communicate the true state of affairs. Various corporate initiatives to improve productivity and decrease costs have met with complete failure due to unrealistic expectations and lack of patience on the part of upper management. The need for instant gratification by senior management has never allowed initiatives to take hold and produce results. Instead, the managers responsible for implementing these initiatives had their hands tied with immediate budget cuts and rampant micromanagement.

Pros

Great compensation, benefits, and hours. Get to know many clients and businesses on route. Lots of exercise. Lots of alone time.

Cons

For some, the alone time can be very lonely. You are in a van or truck for many hours. Podcasts, radio, hands-free: get to love it. Sometimes logistics can be unpredictable. Delays, traffic, on-call pickups. You have to be very flexible and adaptive with fairly quick critical thinking skills to excel at this job.

Pros

Get entry level sales position. The company has great benefits..

Cons

You will be calling 80-100 times per day for months until you get promoted but it’s a fairly easy job. Can just be boring.
