Pros

Good benefits, people, environment. Sometimes (under certain supervisors) Work Life balance is a challenge especially with the challenging petroleum and energy industries.

Cons

Global environment and meetings. Doing business in over 100 countries and making policies to fit for all. The meetings seem to go on and getting the work done sometimes come in second to attendance.

Pros

It's a Multinational and Multicultural company. You get great compensation. Career development opportunities are provided and you get to work with great people. Also you enjoy international travel opportunities

Cons

Not many. Shell is a great company to work for! Sometimes decisions take a longer time to reach because of collaboration and inclusiveness of ideas of a wide group of stakeholders
