Pros

Pay is good, but even that is not enough for what they ask you to do. If you want to move up, you definitely can, but that's if you want to be a corporate slave.

Cons

Don't expect a break at all. Expect management to continually throw more and more reports and responsibilities on you. You'll end up doing their job, and the job of an FOS equal modern day slavery. The health insurance is high as hell if you have a family. Work/life balance is a joke. Expect to be owned by the company. Trial by error. Tossed into the fire and expected to be held responsible for things you don't have control over. XPO pinches pennies so much that supervisors are doing a two man job, and is still suppose to be responsible for everything. FOS's are managements scapgoats. The drivers and dock workers hate management and vice versa. I can see the union coming in soon because there is already an "us vs them mentality." XPO expects you to care for the company, but they don't give a damn about you. As dock workers and drivers how they feel about management if you get a chance.

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
