Pros

Well, they did pay me. That's about it.

Cons

The only communication you receive from upper management is threats, punishment, and insults. Many of the supervisors are simply incapable of treating hourly employees with respect. Everyone hates the upper management staff and morale is rock-bottom. Horrible physical conditions. The site I work at is 70 years old, walls made of asbestos, with ancient insulation containing asbestos. The walls are disintegrating and the insulation tiles are falling down day by day and the safety engineer tells everyone it is safe. Workers are underpaid, underappreciated, and overworked. The scope of the job is unreal. I feel like I am doing the jobs of three people. It's mind-boggling. I am constantly interrupted and moved from one unfinished task to a new one only to leave it unfinished as well because of the poor planning and totally unrealistic staffing levels. Overall a horrible experience, I myself and every single one of my fellow hourly co-workers are looking to get away from this despicable company. Toxic environment both physically and mentally.Community Gu

Pros

I have enjoyed my time with XPO and appreciate the opportunities the company has provided for both personal and professional growth. The team environment is supportive, and I've had the chance to build strong relationships with coworkers and customers over the years. One of the things I value most is that hard work and dedication are recognized. Every day brings new challenges, which keeps the job interesting and allows me to continue learning. Leadership encourages employees to find solutions and work together to provide excellent customer service. Like any large company, there are busy periods and opportunities for improvement, but overall, XPO offers a solid career path, competitive benefits, and the chance to make a real impact. If you're someone who enjoys a fast-paced environment and is willing to put in the effort, XPO can be a rewarding place to build a career.

Cons

The transportation industry is constantly changing, so employees need to be adaptable and able to handle shifting priorities. Workloads can be demanding at times, but the teamwork and customer relationships make it rewarding
