Pros

Good salary package and work life balance.

Cons

Severe bureaucracy and process-reliant leadership. Very slow career progression. Values and vision look noble on paper but not reflected when dealing with personnel issue. Eg: Not LGBTQ friendly in real life. Profit first. People last. As my retired/retiring ex-colleagues aid, the golden era of Shell was over long before 2000s. Way too many lazy people being complacent and incompetent in their jobs. It became very discouraging if you're looking for stimulating and exciting work environment.

Pros

Great work/life balance and pay

Cons

401k match is terrible for new employees. Lack of direction in a huge bureaucracy makes it difficult to get things done efficiently. Consistent lay-off environment creates too much stress and distraction for employees.
