Pros

Pays your salary on time, respect to your work life balance, concerns people's lives, prestigious company, very well design systems, corporate culture, opportunities to learn, supports training

Cons

Unfortunately hr is not a bridge between employees and management, tough subjects can be ignored if its about shell people, i didn't see much improvement after low scores of surveys, low salary and benefits in Turkey comparing to Europe, careers are very dependent to line manager views.

Pros

Interesting projects are available, if you're buddies with right people. Everything is very early stage development, so there's no real accountability for failure. It's not a bad deal, really.

Cons

If you want to accomplish anything of any real meaning, you will be sorely disappointed. The company is 99% about making Shell look innovative and 1% about anything of substance. It's embarrassing.

Pros

Good salary, benefits. Hiring process for engineers is tough and brings great people into the company. Smart, capable people everywhere.

Cons

It takes forever to do anything and there is an overwhelming process for everything. It is now a tougher environment in the industry, but as the company looks to control costs, I am seeing more and more decisions that are reasonable when only looked at from a financial perspective, but questionable when considering the complex requirements of this business.
