Pros

Outstanding pay and excellent benefits, professional work environment

Cons

Due to downsizing, the work environment was highly stressful, with leaders unsure of what to say to staff. And thus, work life balance was poor amidst departmental uncertainty. Additionally, although Shell has made great strides in promoting workplace diversity, there are still sexist leanings amongst the senior leadership levels. Lesser qualified male leaders are often promoted over more qualified female candidates.
