Pros

Decent PTO. Good eye insurance. You can show up late and no one cares. Manager NEVER around so you are left to your own devices. Good ol' boys network.

Cons

Health insurance ($425+ for a family, not to mention huge deductible). Churn and burn atmosphere. Unless you have set accounts you manage that meet your monthly GM quota, you are expected to be cold calling outdated or newly searched customers. EVERY "off the street" sales rep in my office has turned over in my 2 years there. Only ones here have major accounts they manage (and were gifted in most cases). Pay structure has been significantly changed 2 times in 18 months. Sales heals all wounds. Zero sense of urgency. If you are a procrastinator, than XPO has a seat for you. They'll eventually fire you, but at least you can cash a paycheck for a couple of months. CFO came out with an email praising everyone for quarterly sales, 2 weeks after huge pay cuts in commissions went into place. How funny is that? That was followed by an email from the CEO saying XPO was voted one of the best places to work. Another joke.

Pros

I have enjoyed my time with XPO and appreciate the opportunities the company has provided for both personal and professional growth. The team environment is supportive, and I've had the chance to build strong relationships with coworkers and customers over the years. One of the things I value most is that hard work and dedication are recognized. Every day brings new challenges, which keeps the job interesting and allows me to continue learning. Leadership encourages employees to find solutions and work together to provide excellent customer service. Like any large company, there are busy periods and opportunities for improvement, but overall, XPO offers a solid career path, competitive benefits, and the chance to make a real impact. If you're someone who enjoys a fast-paced environment and is willing to put in the effort, XPO can be a rewarding place to build a career.

Cons

The transportation industry is constantly changing, so employees need to be adaptable and able to handle shifting priorities. Workloads can be demanding at times, but the teamwork and customer relationships make it rewarding
