Pros

I worked at Shell for 10 years. The company truly values its employees and is committed to work/life balance. Employees are encouraged to take training classes (paid) on a number of subjects, even if the subject matter was not directly associated with you current position. The goal of training is to develop you as a person, make you a stronger employee and enable you to continue to move up in the company. Because there are so many divisions within Shell, I was able to work in organizations dedicated to training, chemical sales, retail station management and many others. This was wonderful exposure to a number of areas of expertise and a multitude of opportunities.

Cons

Multiple levels of bureaucracy make it difficult to get anything done quickly.

Pros

Great opportunities to grow and learn in different parts of the business and affiliates. Company truly cares about employee development - mentor-ship programs, community service, good work life balance, and 9/80 work schedule. Free gym onsite, and some of the best benefits you could ask for.

Cons

Lots of work has been offshored, so it's a challenge teaching and working through differences.
