Pros
Internationally, DHL has great brand recognition and an excellent international network. Decent commission rates... when you can actually hit your number.
Cons
The majority of customers in the US believe DHL went out of business when domestic shipping stopped in 2006. It's not a good start to a sales call when customers thought your company went out of business. DHL cannot come close to competing with volume discounts given by UPS and FedEx due to bundling domestic and international shipping. Extremely difficult to reach the goals they set to hit your number.
