Business Outlook

Pros

Shell offers excellent opportunities for growth early in your career, supports employees in moving to different roles to develop skills and can offer some international opportunities for those interested. Shell is serious about training and development, and there are numerous internal networking opportunities.

Cons

For those more senior in their career, and ambitious to take on more responsibility, Shell will be frustrating as non-quantiative factors weigh in much more heavily into promotion decisions than talent, ability to succeed, proven skills, etc.
