Shell reviews

- The company possess a very structured graduate program for all discipline types (engineering, HR, IT, Finance, etc). In my opinion, you wont experience a better IT graduate program. - The company really values work life balance, they don't want you sticking around till late in the evening to prove you are a good worker. Sometimes if I worked late my line manager would ask why and then insist that I pack up and go home. - Everyone is there to support one another - you will rarely run into an individual that isn't a team player. I've never worked with such great people, and that statement applies to individuals from all different departments spanning from trading to retail and from project managers, business analyst all the way up to VPs and senior managers. - The benefits are great and the pay is industry standard. For London graduates are on a pretty sweet pay package, although not as much as the banks. But then again, the work life balance at Shell is SO MUCH BETTER than if you were at a bank or consulting firm.

The salary is fantastic! I always felt like they rewarded me well for my hard work and extra effort in terms of bonus and stock award. Very generous with vacation, with option to purchase an extra week each year. You will do very well if pay and benefits are your highest priority. The re-orgs can be a little bit intimidating, but if you do your job well, you will be safe.
