Pros

Great people who are trained to work well together, collaborate, and put the customer first.

Cons

The political pressures to move toward renewable or cleaner energy is causing Shell to devalue strong platforms like fuels and lubricants. They are cutting headcount there when this is the cash cow for them. The strategic changes are opening the door for competition to take business. Mid-level managers are being cut dramatically making it hard for future folks to advance in their careers.
