Vantaggi
1. Work-life balance & amazing culture. Truly respectful and supportive environment, which encourages and enables a work-life balance. Good non-monetary benefits: hybrid-work, reasonable PTO, daycare, reproductive leaves, maternity/paternity leaves, etc. 2. Structured development plans for career progression and transparent performance evaluations. 3. Management invests time and effort into resource upskilling, especially for younger talent.
Svantaggi
1. Slow to adapt to change. Shell tends to take a risk-averse approach to industry trends. Bringing in new technology or workflows requires a very "bureaucratic" approvals process. 2. Frequent restructuring. Although they prioritize retaining existing employees, still affects job security when the number of roles is reduced. 3. Certain roles & functions can be limiting in terms of restricted and static responsibilities. This also means your technical skills may fall behind industry peers in other companies.
