Pros

Compensation Work/Life Balance Employee Benefits

Cons

Shell SA is a bureaucratic environment that is very slow to adapt to their ever changing market environment. The company is filled with a lot of bullies who get ahead because of who they know rather than on merit. If you are not a yes man here you won’t fit in and you will feel the wrath of the bullies who are trying to maintain the negative status quo at the expense of true meritorious progress. Their HR is a joke and co-conspirators with these bullies. Confidential information always finds its way to the accused. I am glad I left this rabbit hole.

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
