Pros

Reasonable if not great compensation. Decent vacations, great cafeteria.

Cons

Limited career path, too many jobs for the boys (who are less qualified and experienced than others). Women are in a minority when it comes to management and Shell did nothing to encourage some talented women to stay during the recent round of redundancies. HR are less than useless.

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
