Pros

DHL IT services, apart of being treated like an external vendor by your business counterpart - provides good and ideal career development environment. Working in MNC, expect to work with colleagues across the globe hence be prepared to also sacrifice your evening filled with meetings to accommodate other regions timezone. Work hours can be flexible and also demanding at times.

Cons

Had explained in Pros field, but to sum it up, DHL = Don't Have Life! 😝
