politics, lack of speed. Most of opportunities are located outside of the United Kingdom. Slow career progression as a lot of mid-level managers.

Pros

This is a great place to develop your personal and professional career.

Cons

Company change strategy very often, usually with the reason to save cost. Company also makes a u-turn on previous decision. First outsourcing, now back to insourcing but moving to different location.

Pros

Shell is a nice place to work, positive working environment and I was being appreciated for my work. Also, I got paid a fair amount of money. I would recommend everyone to work here.

Cons

I can't think of a lot of negative things about working at Shell. Maybe the fact that it's a big company, so you will feel like just another employee sometimes.
