Pros

Shell offers a structured and stable working environment, backed by strong global systems and governance. Employees benefit from above-average compensation and comprehensive benefits, especially in corporate roles. The company provides good learning and development opportunities, including exposure to international projects and internal mobility. Its emphasis on safety, sustainability, and professional standards creates a disciplined and reputable workplace.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow due to hierarchical layers and corporate processes, which may delay execution. Some roles, particularly project-based or operational ones, may face high workload during peak periods. Career progression can feel gradual rather than fast-paced, especially without proactive effort. The environment may also feel less dynamic or innovative compared to startups or fast-growing tech companies.

Shell Pay

Pros

HMO, Base Pay, Monthly Pay with tax allowance since 2022

Cons

During my last role, performance review is based on being friends with management not on the results of actions completed and support provided to clean up all the mess left by people they have promoted. Demands are high, results are high, but efforts are unrecognized.
