Pros

Has great work life balance, amazing brand presence, safety and security are paramount, pays well and has good HR policies.

Cons

CEO is following the 'Elon Musk' trend, wherein they feel less people is better, so job security which used to be big in Shell has now been binned, it's not even perform or perish, it's just you survive if you are lucky, if your business division makes sense in the short/medium term and there is nothing you as individual can do about it, even mid-level management is helpless and live constant fear of 'who next' faces the axe.
