      Pros

      Good salary, benefits. Hiring process for engineers is tough and brings great people into the company. Smart, capable people everywhere.

      Cons

      It takes forever to do anything and there is an overwhelming process for everything. It is now a tougher environment in the industry, but as the company looks to control costs, I am seeing more and more decisions that are reasonable when only looked at from a financial perspective, but questionable when considering the complex requirements of this business.

      Well engineer

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay, low stress. Good time off after about 4 years but now its very poor for graduates.

      Cons

      no opportunity for progression, very political with no regard for technical capability in an inherently technical job. Don't bother if you have ambition and drive.

      My review after 5 years experienced working as an advisor in Shell Business Operations

      Human resources services advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - A great place to work, especially if you're a graduate . There were a lot of learning and development courses to develop your skill. - Also, you can explore another career path within the organisation. - Friendly colleagues and flexible working hour (depends with your position).

      Cons

      - Bureaucracy - Although there is "speak your mind" policy and we've been educated to voice out our opinion on the management, there is still consequences to it. - I felt my contribution was undervalued by both team leader/team manager regardless positive feedback from the stakeholders or customer.
