Pros

If you want to sell, this is the job for you. You will spend your day making cold calls and as you land business you will manage that book of business. Company vision is good, but they need to fit all the pieces together and some people may not be able to handle the chaotic nature that currently exist with multiple acquisitions and more to come.

Cons

Not for people with experience in the industry, unless you can bring a book of business over with you. The company has an employee churn mentality. Not saying someone can't be successful, just know what you are getting into before joining. Speaking from the experience in my office, there was too much favoritism by the manager having hired employee's he worked with in the past and there was no direction or sales strategy. Focus was solely on short term success and following some number crunchers monthly sales goals.

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
