The staff and colleagues are great!
We lack basics like forklifts and pallet trucks and so we struggle to finish on time. Pressure from head office but we can’t do anything about it when they don’t listen to any requests about working in the warehouse
DHL Employee, February 2022
Amazing team, very decent pay, work load is perfect, positive environment and understanding managers
If I had to say something, we get a 30 min unpaid break but generally we work through that break (which is our lunch). To counteract this I take three 10 min fag breaks so it’s not an issue at all!
DHL Employee, February 2022
Managers don’t care about anyone else but themselves. They will slag you off to other members of staff. Managers will bring your personal life into a conversation when not needed. Can’t take our breaks when needed it’s either too early or too late in the shift.
