Pros

The total benefits package is nice- pension, 401k giving vs. matching, partnerships with leading healthcare providers. The caliber of most people is top-notch, and safety is not a catch phrase- it is truly ingrained in every aspect of work.

Cons

Decisions are made very slowly due to the consensus building required. The result is lots of time planning, and less time executing. Shell takes a very elitist approach to Talent Management, and can be very opaque about decisions made.
