Pros

Project Management Academy at Shell is world class. Good inclusive office culture, very respectful of backgrounds. Possibility of international work.

Cons

HR is a beast and rules the roost. Red tape and bureaucracy can be burdensome. Salaries (although good) are not as high compared to most competitors.
