Pros

I just finished a role in technical safety engineering and I really enjoyed working with my team. At first, I came into the corporate Shell office feeling like everyone was "too nice," as if people were playing the corporate ladder game like TV would suggest. However, I realized Shell tends to hire pretty genuinely nice people - when I was feeling ill one day, my boss encouraged me to take a break and head home to rest and was very lenient on me when I needed to catch up in the next week. The job was technically challenging, but the team really helped me learn and become independent as an engineer. I also had the chance to work on projects on the side that relate to emissions reduction and clean energy through one of the employee networks, and my line was quite supportive of me spending time learning about topics that interested me during my "development time."

Cons

Sometimes, Shell can feel "too big," as you always seem to find a new business in Shell that you hadn't heard of no matter how long you're in the company. It's exciting, but can make it really confusing what Shell really is doing. For example - we have a digitalization and blockchain team as well as a team that works with clean tech start-ups, but it took me two years to find out these existed. I think Shell could do better at sharing, both internally and externally, what they do in the up-and-coming spaces.
