Shell reviews about "manager"

Leaders are horrible - they aren't classed as leaders but more like BOSSES! Very biased and racist leaders. They DO NOT care for their employees at all. Luckily John the so called CPO has left the company. Although his title says Chief People Officer, he is not at all a people person. Alec who is a so called Head of Comms, just doesn't know how to communicate with the business in his comms and ends up being very harsh in his articles that end up hurting employee's feelings (very arrogant and shrewd person). Managers on the floor as well aren't very great. If you're working for Shell Energy - you're just another number for them making them money. People don't last long there because the work culture isn't good at all. This place is filled with bossy and arrogant people. No scope for development. You will only get a chance to develop if you are good buddies with the bosses!

Long hours bad manager who wouldn’t give schedules

Some of the managers have their own clicks.

Lateral movement difficult in early career, but if you connect with the right people it is very much possible.

Shell really pays under the average for the Site Manager role

Difficult and heavy organization with a lot of hierarchical procedures that only hinder the work and take up time Unprofessional and untrained line management Mobbing Standard “flattering the manager” agenda and a lot of drama on top of hard work Personal relationship are valued more than professional Corporate culture can be toxic and intrusive and is more a “show” then the real care

Low salary, bad managers and no appreciation

- Your experience can depend on the team you are in. There are some teams with incompetent leaders or sometimes individual contributors with an informal leadership role. A classic example is a former manager who was moved to an individual contributor role. - Pay is not competitive, even if they claim they do - Lack of flexibility on working arrangements - Lack of external perspectives

Little scope for career advancement High level of pressure Strict deadlines
