      Pros

      3 day on 3 day off schedule

      Cons

      Management expects employees to work their full schedule plus extra long shifts to make up for short staffing. Hard work often goes unnoticed, and leadership opportunities seem to go to favorites rather than those who consistently perform. It’s frustrating to be the one who carries the workload and still gets blamed for others’ mistakes. There also seems to be unprofessional behavior between some supervisors and crew members that affects the work environment.

      Hello, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to read about your experience, and we appreciate your honesty. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the 3-day on, 3-day off schedule, but it’s concerning to read about the issues with management and recognition. We truly value hard work and want to ensure that everyone feels appreciated for their contributions. Your points about favoritism and the need for professionalism between supervisors and crew members are really important. We want to create an environment where everyone feels supported and recognized for their efforts. We have a strong commitment to fair treatment and equal opportunities for all our employees. Any form of favoritism goes against our company values, and we have policies in place to prevent and address such behaviors. Our HR department plays a crucial role in ensuring that employees are treated with respect and dignity, and we encourage all team members to reach out to them whenever they encounter issues or concerns. We greatly appreciate your contributions to us and wish you the best in your future endeavors. Your Deutsche Post and DHL Team
