Pros

Leaving the warehouse after your loaded up and being by your self away fro DHLthe rest of the day

Cons

They hire you as a driver and when you get there you end up having to be a line worker also and sort all your own packages and scan them all and then load them. They don’t give hardly any instructions just throw you a scanner and say have At it and then when you mess up then they tell you what you did wrong when you’re in trouble for it. Pretty much zero training and not to mention good luck trying to get your paycheck from them. And the warehouse employees are all acting a fool singing and dancing the place is a circus.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about your experience at our Orlando site. We’re glad to read that you valued the salary, the 4x10 shift structure, and especially the relationships with your peers. At the same time, we regret the challenges you described related to senior management behavior, HR involvement, and consistency in people practices. A respectful, professional work environment where policies are applied fairly and leaders act with accountability is fundamental to our culture, and it’s clear there are areas where continued improvement is needed. To clarify, participation in company supported charitable or donation initiatives is strictly voluntary. Employees are not expected or required to contribute, and any perception of pressure is not aligned with our policies or expectations. If these initiatives were experienced differently, we would take that feedback seriously and see it as an opportunity to reflect on how our communications and practices are perceived. While we are sorry to learn that the overall culture did not meet your expectations, we appreciate you clearly outlining your concerns. Feedback like this plays an important role in ongoing reflection and improvement. Thank you for the contributions you made during your time with DHL. We wish you all the best moving forward. Best regards, Your DHL Team
