Pros

There are excellent opportunities to advance into global roles that offer valuable career experiences and personal development, benefiting you and your family.

Cons

Shell does not have a structured career succession planning process. As a result, employees are expected to find new internal roles independently every 3 to 4 years. Additionally, the company frequently undergoes reorganizations, often occurring within the same timeframe, which can affect career progression and limit your time in the company.

Pros

Some very talented co-workers. Shell can execute on massive projects around the globe. Pay is good but you may find your career to be in slow motion

Cons

Shell has a very special, optimistic culture that can become exhausting. Those who love process and bureaucracy may thrive. Too many team leads who neither advise nor coordinate. Lack of vision among middle managers
