Pros

I started there when they were P&O Ports. It was a good company to be with, played well, you worked hard and had a sense of satisfaction at the end of your shift. When it became DP World the place slowly went downhill. Its now a workplace of last resort.

Cons

Bad management (a succession of them), bad planning and blaming staff for their incompentance. Terrible plant and equipment (again blame the staff). No incentive to achieve, a true 'us and them' mentality. Shocking HR, who enjoy making life hard for the workers. All in all a style of utter anal retention.

Pros

Hybrid role, I like my new boss, good learning experiene, nice office.

Cons

Hybrid is 1 day at home 4 in. They did bait and switch. Offered free healthcare then started to charge and make you pay your 6k out of pocket in HSA. Then the next you they took away bonuses for freight forwarding. So I'm 2 years in naking more but bringing home less. They do not respect workers and dont want work live balances. They are putting the horse behind cart being built. No one knows what they are doing in FF. IT fixes something and creates more problems. Former CEO was involved with Epstien and is still a contractor with the company. Hopefully no more layoffs will happen.
