Great company that ebbs and flows with the global energy markets
Pros
Employee value proposition - great salary and benefits Community - interact with some of the finest people in the world Adventure - depending on you and your expertise, there are opportunities to see the world.
Cons
After close to twenty years at the company, I thought that Shell played the long game in energy - delivering incredible cashflow from the markets of today while strategically investing in the opportunities of the next decade. I'm not sure that's the case anymore under current management. Shell has refocused on immediate shareholder return above all else - reducing investments in anything that is not as profitable as oil or gas or trading products today. I understand that shift from a financial perspective, but I expected more from what I thought was one of the most visionary companies in the world. That incorrect expectation is on me. I shouldn't have.
