Shell reviews

Shell IT hub do not have any structure in hiring process. You can be hired at any job group/salary based on the position you have been interviewed. Within few weeks of joining you will find that half of your exp person is in same job group and may be same salary also. They don't care about your # yrs of exp, current designation, role etc. Most of the recruiters are contractors and they don't really care about your work or career. Management is also equally arrogant in ignoring people issues. In my 12 years of career with 2 MNC companies, have not seen such incompetent senior management but they are enjoying life as they fly business class, no accountability, just talking to impress NL bosses. The senior management people are hired through networking and they are only looking at their salary, survival and there is no employee focus. On the other hand you will find highly demotivated and disengaged employees on floor except few people who would have got wind fall deals in shell compared to their worth in the market. So the environment is very political and unstable as there is no structure in hiring, work assignment. designation/role etc etc. So please join at your own risk!!

Lousy way of doing cutbacks to their staff. If your position changed by a 30 % then your position was considered open to all employees in the company to apply. Employee holding the position had to apply for their own position. No interviews are conducted, no references are spoken to and past performance reviews are not applicable. One person, usually a VP makes the decision with no consultation from anywhere else. In majority of cases the employee holding the position at the time is forced out without any consideration for past performance and no input from any over seeing supervisors.
