Pros

Large company with some opportunity to move around.

Cons

1. Antiquated processes that become demotivating and discouraging 2. Development is not Agile, more waterfall. 3. You have to fill out a time card (I know this seems nit but it is usually a clear sign of how outdated and broken the development process is) 4. Management acts more like taskmasters than force enables. Management tows the line instead of removing blockers and representing dev teams by communicating need for change up the org chart. 5. Constant context switching, tons of meetings with everyone in them, overbearing workload with unrealistic expectations, and lots of unnecessary stress.

Pros

Great onboarding experience with a supportive team. Leadership has been accessible, training has been well organized, and everyone has been willing to answer questions and help me learn. The culture has been welcoming and collaborative.

Cons

Still new to the organization, so I have not identified any significant concerns at this time.

Pros

Working at RXO is a fantastic experience. I find the leadership to be supportive and encouraging. The work is challenging and rewarding. Everyday I feel like I am a part of the solution to drive results for our customers. The company has the resources of a large company with the teamwork of a small one. We all depend on each other, and everyone works hard to generate those results. When I need support, it is there. The team that I am assigned is reliant on my contribution and grateful when I go above and beyond expectation. I have found this style of collective work ethic to be a rarity in corporate America, everyone here is proud of their piece of the puzzle and happy to play their part. It is the first time I can honestly say I am excited to come to work. It was recently recognized on the Where You Work Matters list and it is a fair assessment of the culture here at RXO

Cons

I truly enjoy my role and do not have any cons.
