Job Group is the trap, you get cheated when you join

Pros

Marble reception, but I guess it wasn't meant for me.

Cons

Minorities and women have a glass ceiling set at the beginning when you join, you aren't aware of it, it a job group level e.g. 4, 3, or even lower. You get cheated in the term, because when you join your eyes are on the salary and you pay little attention to the job group. Where as the job group is your LIFE in Shell. Once set it is IMPOSSIBLE to revise, forget about the blabla of it is possible, it is not. To move from one job group to another you need 3 to 4 to even 5 years in a job (mostly 3), if you get cheated you'll never make it to any top position, because there is an even worse thing whicih is the estimated job group at retirement, even tah gets assigned, you have NO say, so for minorities and women the estimated JG at retirement is set at maximum 3, which means never reach any position of value. Shell is only for the English and Dutch and fellow white anglosaxons. Don't believe me? go waste a couple of decades of your life in Shell to find out.
