Cons

Some management focuses on the wrong things, are maybe are not meant to be in management, is great people company, I guess your always one or two bad apples in the bunch

Pros

Shell's business activities are very interesting, it has an open culture, the compensation in the Netherlands is above average, the people that work at Shell are very smart

Cons

Shell is overly complex, leading to lack of understanding in the organisation of how things work, Shell is very risk averse and lacks a commercial mindset, Shell has difficulty providing the right opportunities to it's talented employees which leaves many people frustrated.
