XPO Logistics

"There's support for diversity and inclusion in all forms from the top down. "

"I believe that there is equal treatment and equal opportunity at this company for women. The company invests a lot into training. The focus for this company changes rapidly and frequently which can make it challenging to meet goals that are already in place. There are a lot of last minute conference calls and additional short notice project requirements that can regularly lead to 12 hour work days. There appears to be a lot of turnover in sales positions. During my time at this company the majority of new sales reps lasted no longer than two years. There are lots of surveys that gets sent to employees yet changes are rarely made based on employees input. Service to customers is secondary to the bottom line, due to this it can be difficult to retain customers when in a sales position for this company. "

"Just try it, they respect women and men equally. Thumbs up for XPO Logistics! "

"The atmosphere is nice and the people are cool, but the billable hours can feel unattainable without the right amount of work to be done. They do provide flexibility, however work life balance is can be tough when trying to ensure you meet the billable requirement."

"I would like to see more women in leadership positions, but the trucking industry in general is male-dominated and we need more women contenders to gain that balance. XPO did recently start a pregnancy care policy which offers 80 hours of paid leave time during pregnancy and 6 weeks of paid maternity leave that kicks-in after short term disability runs out. Depending on the position, you may be able to work from home under special circumstances such as having a sick child, etc. but it very much depends on what you do and whether your job is hourly or salaried. Pay and health benefits are both average."
