      Pros

      plenty of parking security was very good on site new offices at the time we're nice

      Cons

      abusive management and HR that never attempted to protect employees from said abusive management. poor salary for what they asked you to do beyond your job scope. Always encouraged to work overtime without pay and then blamed by management for burning out due to crazy number of over time hours worked every week. constructive dismissal used if they didn't like you as a person. management tried it on me by setting completely unrealistic targets and threatened dismissal if I didn't hit targets. when this failed they tried to say they suspected I was on drugs and conducted tests on the day to try and force me out. failed again as I was always sober during work and have never done drugs of any kind. when I passed said drug test there was no apology from site management or HR for putting me through that while I was going through severe anxiety and depression. I would NEVER recommend working for this company at any level whatsoever.

      Pros

      XPO are a growing company who look after their people and are constantly winning large contracts across the U.K. The strap-line "you go we grow" pretty much sums up my experience since working for the business. The training and development has seen my career progress and also I've seen the contracts I work on go from strength to strength. Every site I've worked at the culture and environment has been excellent and one that is shared amongst employees. Another pro for XPO Logistics is decision making. Each site is viewed at as it's own business and you are empowered at to make business decisions. The flat structure supports this and it really does drive growth and also innovation within sites. Across the UK and Europe we have great strength in many business sectors in particular E-Commerce. This businesses approach and expertise will see XPO grow further within the E-comm sector and also gain a stronger footprint within Food and Retail. We hold great experience within legacy sectors (both transport and warehousing) and we will continue to win business from competitors moving through this decade.

      Cons

      The business doesn't have a story unlike Norbert Dentressangle and our competitors. The industry and people within it look to this as a support mechanism and the new birth of XPO is one that makes new comers feel unsettled. We will great a story but when winning new contracts this is one to be mindful of and also looking externally for new talent. There isn't a share scheme. It would be great if we could buy XPO shares through a scheme.

      Pros

      The relationship with our customers is strong, we have a good reputation and our brand is strong.

      Cons

      There are changes happening centrally, being led from Europe, that are affecting the moral of the whole central function. We’ve gone from being a company that lives by some fantastic values to a shell that is more interested about cost saving. The road ahead looks bleak and some serious damage is being done to the moral of the central functions. Since XPO purchased Norbert, most of the time we’ve been on a path to becoming the best logistics company in the world, now we’re quickly slipping down that chain and the bureaucracy is making us lose our agility in the market.
