Pros

Very good salary and development as i joined under the graduate scheme. Not only the graduate, I can see that the pay for normal staffs are pretty high too. Shell emphasize on staffs development so most of the staffs are very professional. I also appreciate that Shell willing to invest in staffs development.

Cons

It is very hard for contractor to be converted to staff so sometimes it result in low morale for the contractors.

Pros

Knowledgeable people, good culture, easy to work with others.

Cons

As a contractor, little or no opportunity to convert to an employee. Antiquated processes with newer technology makes for a strange mix. Hesitancy to adopt new processes and technical solutions. I.T. difficult to work with and navigate towards a solution.
