Pros

Great atmosphere with a decent work/life balance. We do a lot for the community, charity walks and stuff like that...they promote themselves well in the community.

Cons

You work like crazy and then when it comes time for a raise they look at you like you should feel blessed to work there. Then you don't get a raise b/c your not meeting their unrealistic expectations, or if you are meeting their crazy goals they change them b/c your "making too much $$". When they realize their goals are way out in left field they don't rein them, they wait till the next year to adjust. Everything they do is take care of their shareholders which is no one in the company outside of "C" level execs. Your basically working to be the steps for everyone else above you.They like the entrepreneurial minded people, which is awesome...but they tend to crush that out of you. In the end don't plan on getting any stock options that would help keep that entrepreneurial fire in you...

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
