Pros
Good Pay. Lot's of training amd education. Very interesting work.
Cons
I wanted to move from New Orleans to Houston, and a team in Houston said they wanted me on their team. The New Orleans team blocked the move. If you want to advance your career or want a change, do it externally to Shell, don't let Shell hold you back. Poor work life balance, lots of after hours calls and a typical week is already 60 hours. Company continues to make this worse by laying people off. People are frequently promoted into roles they are not qualified for. This is frustrating when you have to teach senior people how to do their job, but also stressfill when it happens to you . Management of Change process is very cumbersome. Very poor software is used. Shell was very cowardly about oil and gas outlook in 2020. When oil was cheap and we should have been spending big money on maintenance and refurbishment, they focused on laying off employees. By the time "project reshape" was executed, gas was back to $80 per barrel.
