Dear colleague, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It’s great to read that you appreciate the monthly bonus and incentives. At the same time, we fully understand the concerns you raised. A lack of work–life balance, insufficient manpower or backup, and too many manual processes can make the workload heavier than it should be. Improving working conditions, planning, and overall efficiency remains a priority for us. We also appreciate your point about the need for proper guidance for new employees. Everyone deserves clear onboarding, structured training, and supportive colleagues. This is an area where we know we can continue to improve. There are always topics we can work on, and your input helps us move in the right direction. We encourage you to share your ideas directly with your supervisor, manager, or HR department. Your feedback helps us to continuously improve. Thank you for your ongoing efforts and dedication to us. Best regards, Your DHL Team

Hello, Thanks for sharing your experience with us. It’s great to read that you enjoyed the work during the DHL shifts while you were with us part time in Magdeburg. We appreciate you pointing out the challenge with the heavier loads. Warehouse work can definitely require some physical strength at times. We understand this can create a challenging work environment and impact employee well-being. We wish you all the best for your future. Your Deutsche Post and DHL Team
