Pros

Depending on your negotiating skills you may end up with a good pay.

Cons

Everything else. Shell adores joint ventures (JV) this is where you career will commit a suicide. Shell is a money company and not an engineering company. And no, they don't care about the renewable business, as they claim. They just make professionals leave their good careers with some other companies then a few weeks after you join, you realize that you must do jobs that are not related to you, if you are lucky. If you are unlucky, you will lose your job on the next re-org (which happens very frequently).

Pros

Excellent work environment and great coworkers in most cases. There have been a lot of opportunities in the past.

Cons

Shell changes too often, especially in IT. They are putting way too much in building their IT workforce in India and the US employee is no longer respected.
