Pros

Moving from a well-known company with great pay and benefits was not an easy decision, as I had stability and was aware of their well-established processes. I was filled with doubt and apprehension, and would the move live up to the standard I was used to? Well, the reality is YES and more. What surprised me the most was how much I have grown, both professionally and personally. This is down to the great values in place, it’s not just a company gimmick or a banner to fly which some company’s out there do, they truly live them and drive them across the business. If you want to grow and develop your professional career, this is the company for you. No matter what level you are, I have found that if you’re willing and want to push yourself then you will have the backing here at GXO, this stems all the way to top management and they are always happy to help no matter the issues. If this doesn’t appeal to you then the fact that they have great benefits in place which your family members can also benefit from, salary is competitive, and the company is dependable and consistent giving you the comfort and ease that some long-term employees are looking for.

Cons

If you would call it a con, I would say the rate/time the business deploys their fantastic apps and process, as you tend to find there is always a solution/ process in place for it, but you where unaware of or is not yet deployed to your site. This is not a game changer, as its always being reviewed and driven out from above, it’s just an issue due to the growth of the business.

Pros

Great coworkers and talented engineers who genuinely support one another. Opportunity to work on impactful projects and solve real business problems. Exposure to modern BI and data technologies. Strong team members who are willing to go above and beyond to deliver results. Good learning opportunities for self-motivated individuals.

Cons

Leadership and management style can create unnecessary stress and turnover risk. Frequent micromanagement and excessive focus on responsiveness rather than outcomes. High meeting volume reduces time available for focused engineering work. Priorities and stakeholder commitments are sometimes established before consulting the engineers responsible for delivery. Limited trust in experienced employees and their ability to manage their own work. Internal growth and mobility can feel restricted. Work-life balance can be impacted by shifting priorities and urgent requests. Lack of recognition or compensation alignment when additional onsite expectations or workload demands are introduced. Having a non-technical BI manager overseeing technical engineering work can sometimes result in unrealistic timelines, misunderstandings of development complexity, and decisions being made without sufficient technical input.
