Pros

Benefits, vacation time, family leave, a pension. Generally very respectful of dissenting beliefs and opinions. Company’s heart is in the right place.

Cons

Very tolerant of incompetence. Way over staffed with tons of deadweight employees. Highly variable work experience based on what area/group you work. Too bloated with middle managers who are clueless and survive by spewing corporate jargon to impress their superiors

Pros

Good work life balance and decent pay.

Cons

This is a EU company, biased to EU employees. All senior management are from EU or with EU degree, no career path or growth opportunity for US employee at all. It is funny that to claim diversify and inclusive, Shell promote many women faster even though they are not capable.
