Pros

People at Shell are very kind and understanding Great benefits and provides allowances!

Cons

There are some line managers or leaders who have a very traditional view on promotions (I don't know why they are strict with the 4-year rule before promotions). Not every manager but a lot.

Pros

Shell business (real end users) are always understanding. But IT folks like product managers, CC leads/ managers are not and will make life miserable with long hours, micromanagement and no value to IT skill.

Cons

Recognition are always biased and no IT skill growth, stagnated roles once it reaches JG4 for most of folks as later in JG4, its all about ppt and politics. So next job progression is just a dream.

It's hard to leave when there is a great compensation package, London stipend, outstanding pension contributions, free gym in office etc.

Cons

Bonus structure is flawed, wouldn't say its necessarily on merit but could differ from line manager to line manager
