Pros

If you show up you will be ok.

Cons

I have worked for a few of shell retail Franchises over the years and there pretty much all the same. You are on your own for 99% of your time and expected to do the work of 3 people for basic wage (no extra for nights). New starters are left on there own far to soon with only the bear minimum of training and just expected to know what they are doing. One of Shells mottos is Go Home Well, 9 times out of 10 you don't. Summary Salary = Minimum wage ( cash loses come out as well) Benefits = NONE Management = Do the best they can (Franchisee in control) Job work-life balance = If you can get set shifts you will be ok, but good luck with that. Job security = If you show up you will be ok. Advancement = You can ask then ask again still will not get you anywhere. Job culture = Bad ( If by chance any one from shell retail upper management reads this, Please look more closely in to your Franchise's ) In all honesty if you go for a interview just ask these 2 question's, what is the the hourly rate and if it lone working. If the answers are Minimum and yes walk away.

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.
