Pros

The benefits are on par with other companies of this size. Performance is rewarded and there are constant opportunities to expand and grow. Management is transparent and open to new ideas.

Cons

As a typical large company they are slow to change and frequently rehash/rename old programs that didn't work the first time around.

Pros

Great people to work with and Shell is very selective about who they take on. Very mature IT processes and pioneering in IT management.

Cons

The company is huge and it is initially very tough to become productive in such a large ecosystem. You will be very dependant on having a line manager who recognises the learning curve and invests the required time in you to ensure you are effective in your working environment.
