The company I had been working for all of a sudden came to a decision to close down, a lot of workers left not knowing what’s next the company posted signs saying they will not give employees severance for numerous reasons, & stated your reason had to be good in order to receive it, they start placing employees & job locations that doesn’t fit the employees schedules to which they had at first stating that the job is already filled, it’s so many hard working employees with children that sacrificed so much away time from their kids just to keep the job & to get a smack in the face is like wow!!! It’s like they are pressuring you to accept the placement so you don’t receive your severance package or some employees might have to file unemployment, the hours dropped drastically like never before to the point it’s not enough money to pay any bills, i just hope everyone decide wisely & I hope & pray that everything go right

Like a curb ball. HR department will set up an invitation after hours on Friday evening (around 7-8PM), expecting you to not respond, for 8AM Monday morning. You get a call from both your manager and HR Manager and they tell you that the company went under an organizational restructure and your position was eliminated. If you are laid off. Severance pay is below average (less than a month's pay for 5 years of service) and worse of all, XPO does not allow your manager to give you a recommendation letter nor can you use them as a reference. While employed, my experience was that upper management lacked guidance, mentorship and accountability. Clients objectives are not aligned with XPO's. As XPO's first priority is the bottom line. Therefore, all manager are overly optimized to manage multiple accounts and leaves them less bandwidth to actually manage their subordinates. I will echo what everyone else will say about this company, look for employment elsewhere.

When they don’t need you anymore it’s “bye bye !”
