      Shell Canada not the same as Royal Dutch Shell

      Pros

      - good work /life balance if you do not wish to work long hours regardless of the amount of work (however some managers see this as a negative and will give you a very low individual performance number that will reflect badly on your increment and future job within Shell) - most colleagues are willing to help - considering today's economy on Alberta pay and benefits are pretty good

      Cons

      - beware of your manager; do not assume they have your back - 10 years ago Shell Canada was a good company to work for and was fair. Today it's who you know and not what you know -many managers have an agenda to show they are on board with cost cutting. As soon as your assignment move date comes up they are willing to let the experienced talent go and hire inexperienced cheaper staff. - majority of the time the staff that may have been with the company for over 15 Yeats are told to find another job or leave the company just and extension to their current assignment is not given And they are expected to train their totally inexperienced successor before they can leave - current management in Canada is not thinking of the company or their repoetees but only busy buttering up their own bosses

      Pros

      The company helps to identify diversity and promote it. The compensation is more than you can imagine. Great place to work but they have had many lay offs. Also in my case they were very unfair.

      Cons

      The company itself is not transparent and is very political, which what I hated about the job. Even if you are better at something than someone else and everyone knows it, the hiring manager will pick someone they "knew".
