Pros

Positive spirit of DHL people throughout the company, 570.000 colleagues feel like "one family". A lot of people-focused initiatives that are taken seriously, e.g., Diversity, Leadership programs, Trainings, Openness, Transparency. Core Values: Respect & Results.

Cons

A large Corporation with 570.000 people means you will meet many people during your career. For those who are scared of meeting new colleagues, this might be a challenge, for those who see new contacts as opportunities for developing oneself, it is a benefit.

Dear colleague, From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for leaving us a comprehensive and positive 5-star review! We are very happy to read that you are fully immersed into our unique culture and see all the benefits it provides. Indeed, as you have mentioned, DHL is a people-centric company, both in regards to its customers and its employees. We take great pride in this especially because of how many lives we touch on a daily basis. In regards to your advice to the management, we believe that you are 100% spot on. Some changes take more time to see and although the frustration is understandable, as a collective we just need to hang in there. Please note that you are more than welcome to bring this directly to your senior management on site, with any other improvement suggestion or advice - we firmly believe that they will be pleased to hear you out and see what can be done. All in all, thank you for being part of our Big Yellow Family and all your hard work! All the best to you and your team in Bonn, Your Employer Branding Team

Hello, We look forward to your 5-star rating. Thanks a lot for this. We’re glad that you found the job enjoyable, with friendly coworkers and a positive day-to-day experience.

We strongly encourage employees to report any inappropriate behavior so it can be addressed. At DHL, creating a safe and respectful working environment is a top priority. We truly appreciate you being open about both the positives and the challenges. Your feedback helps us improve. Wishing you all the best moving forward, Your DHL Team

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
