Pros

Perfect opportunity to build your own book of business without being micromanaged. Definite learning curve for those entering into the corporate scene so take full advantage of all the skills you can learn. Great opportunity to learn so much about sales and the freight industry.

Cons

As with any start-up, there will be plenty of changes without little notice or regard. But the expectation to "roll with punches" is unacceptable. The sooner we realize that good sales reps don't make good managers or "decision makers" the better. Although the company is outlined to have a position responsible for each turn of every transaction, most responsibility, and blame, will fall on the shoulders of the account manager. This can be extremely stressful but will definitely teach you to make sound judgment calls for each and every business move.

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
