Pros

The large size and reputation of DHL gives clout when dealing with carriers, there are many resources available for teleconferencing, on-line training and respect for co-workers and staff is concscientiously observed.

Cons

The focus is too often on secondary concerns and following correct protocol while ignoring major issues; the tracking website is not user (or customer) friendly, internet connections slow, IT help evenly slower and these issues are discussed endlessly but not resolved.. Reports sometimes replace action and resolution. Management seems top heavy and often require issues to be summarized,reported, and typically fixing a problem is done by requiring more from operations rather than system improvments.

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.
