DPD Employee, June 2021
The people I work and associate with and the money isn’t bad
It’s the night shifts are unsociable and it’s a very hard job as in physical lifting parcels to and from the different areas in the warehouse
DPD Employee, June 2021
Good banter with colleagues
Upper management don't seem to understand the impact their apparently arbitrary targets have on the stress levels of workers. It seems someone needs to justify their job when really the company would be better without them.
