      Although lots of changes occurring, Shell is still a top company.

      Pros

      Atmosphere of equality, respect, general awareness to diversity and inclusiveness. The company is also very particular about work life balance and does not restrict the employees wanting to take time-off.

      Cons

      Slow decision making. Making change happen can be difficult. Difficult to pursue dynamic or fast paced ambitions. Someimes gives a government company feel with the lack if speed and accountability.

      Finance at Shell

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Shell is a very people-centric company with a global vision. It offers so many various classes of business with so many areas of expertise, you really can do anything in a company this size. Left to your own ambition, there really is a sense of taking a hold of your own future. Work life balance, compensation, and diversity are all top notch.

      Cons

      Lots of beauracracy , to be expected in a company of this size. Because of the varied departments and plethora of roles, responsibilites, and diversity of customers, every role is a little different so in that sense it can be a grab bag at times. Companies this big can be very political. Learning opportunities sometimes more specialized compared to a smaller company.
