Shell reviews

Sometimes too big a company. Felt a little impersonal. A lot of stigma attached to the company and high regard held to those who had operated in difficult/unpopular/controversial country assignments. A lot of lip service paid to 'going green' but few significant moves within the business.

Most of the full-time employees are content to be just where they are. They are not motivated and they know that it is literally impossible to be fired from Shell unless they steal large amounts of money from the company, and their work and work ethic shows it. There is extreme absenteeism, and a general lack of knowledge and/or un-willingness to learn displayed by the older employees who are just waiting until they get enough points to retire.
