Pros

Opportunity to be a part of an innovative company and the forefront of the global energy industry. Opportunity to work across the world and work with people from all over the world in a diverse work environment. Opportunity to work with some of the greatest minds and most talented individuals in the industry. Great benefits.

Cons

Somewhat slow in reaction to the market. Some parts of the organization can feel rather disorganized. Lack of accountability. Employee performance review lean towards presentation as opposed to tangible results.

Pros

You take every other Friday off; which means you have a vacation every two weeks. Few benefits are better than that.

Cons

There is a consensus culture in Shell meaning you have to talk with 20 people to make a decision. It is a double edged sword
