Pros

Good salary and salary on time.

Cons

DP World has one of the most toxic work environments I’ve experienced. Employees are randomly placed on PIP (Performance Improvement Plans), often without valid reasons, making the process feel like a tool to remove people rather than help them improve. Managers deliberately assign extremely tight and unrealistic deadlines, not to encourage efficiency but to create pressure. The belief seems to be that pushing people beyond limits will yield better results, but in reality, it only leads to stress, burnout, and high attrition. There is little to no genuine support from management. Instead of fostering growth, collaboration, and learning, the culture thrives on micromanagement and fear.

Pros

Hybrid role, I like my new boss, good learning experiene, nice office.

Cons

Hybrid is 1 day at home 4 in. They did bait and switch. Offered free healthcare then started to charge and make you pay your 6k out of pocket in HSA. Then the next you they took away bonuses for freight forwarding. So I'm 2 years in naking more but bringing home less. They do not respect workers and dont want work live balances. They are putting the horse behind cart being built. No one knows what they are doing in FF. IT fixes something and creates more problems. Former CEO was involved with Epstien and is still a contractor with the company. Hopefully no more layoffs will happen.
