Pros

Shell has an amazing culture of diversity & inclusion, safety and customer focus. Typically, the employees of Shell are it's best attribute. People generally care for each other and place priority on satisfying needs outside of business first.

Cons

Good luck being a forward think person with ambitious to drive real improvements. The glacial speed of internal processes will lead to a withdrawal of creativity. The company is all talk on driving simplicity and out of the box thinking. Pray to god you can find a job that sparks some passion or else you may be contemplating choosing boredom and a well paying salary or the chance of a fulfilled life elsewhere.

Pros

can't find any except for salary

Cons

very strict rules, TL's and coaches have no idea on the process, but will drive their will through for the better or the worse. Continuous improvement is being implemented the wrong way. HSSE is taken way to serious. everyone knows what to do in case of fire, and the biggest thing that you can hurt yourself on in desk job , is almost a papercut. very strict promotion policy, forget about promotion in the first 2 to 3 years, most people wait 5 to 6 years that i've spoken to.
