Pros

The work in the legal department was challenging and my co-workers were bright, enthusiastic people, so the work atmosphere was enjoyable. I appreciated the fact that while people worked hard at their jobs, they also took part in the many volunteer opportunities which Shell sponsored, giving back to the communities where Shell operated.

Cons

Job advancement opportunities could be limited for certain job grades.
