Pros

Nice people, comfortable culture, great mood, great opportunities, merit-based, performance ranking, importance of safety, straightforwardness, lots of opportunities to make an impact, truly worldwide connectivity.

Cons

Slow decision-making, lots of redundant safety procedures, no affection for beauty in the corporate culture (everything is dictated by necessity, not designed for ergonomics). Checking the outside market and practices is unpopular, “I’m 30+ years in Shell and we always did it this way!”
