Pros

Great benefits, great development opportunities for new graduates, they encourage growth, challenging and exciting work, and great work-life balance

Cons

Shell is sometimes considered the least competitive among the big oil companies because of slow decision making. But I don't have much bad to say.

Pros

The people! I enjoy hanging out with my co-workers and collaborating on projects. There are amazing advancement opportunities for environmental engineers that you don't see elsewhere. It's definitely is a corporate environment, but you see the benefits of that (more exciting job options, great benefits, one of the best company brands in the world). We also have great IP, and some of the strongest technology.

Cons

It can be slow to get things done but there's a lot of effort focusing on continuous improvement, lean work processes, etc. It's a great place to stay for your whole career, or at least 5-7 years. This may make it a perfect fit for people interested in that/but a turnoff for those looking for start up/risk taking culture.

Pros

The best things about Shell is the 9/80 work schedule and pay. Lot of opportunity for working abroad and moving roles.

Cons

There are too many processes. In the Regulatory/Environmental field, it is still a developing business and yet they still try to make you fit into theor competency models, but the models are not fully developed. Additionally, they want globally for everyone to have the same competencies, however, offshore in US and Onshore Gambia are just not the same regulations.
