Pros

Pay and benefits. I can't think of anything else cmon. That's all I can see positive. Done down down done

Cons

No leadership. No truth. No accountability for lousy supervision that don't know what they r doing. Shell talks a good talk but doesn't walk the walk. Absolutely no leadership at site. No direction no accountability and lousy do nothing management. Seriously. There is no training for supervisions and they have no clue how to supervise. saw some of the most childish behavior out of employees but management just gave them a pass. site has NO LEADERSHIP. It's whatever the staff want to do. Gotten worse over past few years. Great pay and benefits but what good does that do when u r in a monkey house.

Pros

- Work life balance: No pressure to do anything (depends which way you look at it) - Decent comp (for a corporate) - Great brand name

Cons

- Lack of career progression (unless you have the right mentor or the right ethnicity) - Mobility: Significant cost pressures have made relocations outside one's own base country almost impossible, so although an international company, very localised opportunities - Uncertain outlook post BG acquisition (which has been a disaster in terms of financial stability: for e.g. lack of cash flows affecting everything; massive spike in redundancies across the board which is affecting morale, job security etc) - Below average colleagues: Lack of motivation, drive, intellect - Politics is massive
