Pros

- Global brand, very respected if you are into logistics - Employee discount on courier services - Adequate annual leave - That's about it

Cons

- Interaction between management and staff and within employees are very weak, at least in my department - They really need to upgrade their IT equipments... - Extremely old and outdated IT system which looks like it was designed centuries ago - No robust training program and colleagues are not very willing to teach. Not the best place to start your career at - Company is always on cost-cutting measures... do not expect high pay, benefits, good pay increment or exceptional bonus - The company is in the midst of outsourcing programs (as result of above measures) which makes our work more difficult than usual - Management seems to try to improve workflow but often focus on the wrong issues... a lot of weirdly named improvement initiatives which are worthless and waste of time in my opinion - Again, poor management.

Pros

Not a single one comes to mind

Cons

I don't think there is enough words for how absolutely horrid the management is in Detroit. They do not care about you as a person. They smile in your face then break your morale, the very little we have left. They tell you to come to them when you need help or with any questions then make you feel like a burden for asking them a question. Literally, verbally exasperated when replying or they will belittle you for not knowing something. They drone on and on about being a team then destroy the morale. They also love to tell you how "transparent" they are then conveniently forget to inform you of changes that affect your life and schedule.
