Pros

Shell is a global company so it is far reaching.. The pay is good and once you learn how to navigate the system there is room to move. They are going through a restructuring and it is impressive to see the effort they put into making sure everyone has a job.

Cons

Shell is a global company. They have so many processes it takes a lot of money, time, and effort to get something done which is what I meant by they can't get out of the way of themselves.

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
