Pros

Safe work environment considering the nature of the business. Union backed. Tremendous opportunities for advancement. Plenty of overtime if you like to do it. Union pay scale and medical are excellent! Great paying job even for those without degrees. Shell's Goal Zero mentality is excellent. 100% vested retirement plans.

Cons

Black out dates for turn-arounds. If you don't like some overtime then this may be a challenge. For Operations, shift work can be tough. No Pay for required Basic Fire Crew!

Pros

Good work life balance. Peers are intelligent and care about job, but not too intense. There are opportunities to switch roles every 2-5 years which makes the job more interesting.

Cons

There are more ambitious people with leadership potential who work for Shell than there are management positions, so someone who doesn't quite make a management role might not be satisfied with their job later down the line if they were hoping for a leadership role. While Shell does not squander all creativity, being a big oil company, they are fairly risk adverse, so there are not tons of opportunities to try out new technologies not already proven in the Shell system.
