Shell Instrument Specialist salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

For now nothing to say. Every benefits were stopped in the name of cost cutting.

Dislikes

... industrial mindset of absorbing employees blood and not providing any benefits. Promotion takes minimum 6 years, And salary standards were only 40-50% compared to others and not 75%. Top level of management focus on how to destroy the shell culture and make own benefits.

Large organisation / big brand Diverse business and people Good pay on paper Work life balance - depends on role or project to project

Dislikes

No vision in IT, leaders/managers are merely postman. Your growth and job security is 100% dependent on your leaders and 0% on work quality you deliver. I have seen absolute poor performers getting promoted and very good performers struggling to keep job during frequent reorgs. Lot of care / safety / people Dev only in powerpoint slides. They don’t act what they preach.

I think Shell is one of the best company in the world where you can upskill and improve yourself in every aspect. Company work culture and Policy for employee is very attractive. They really care for employee wellbeing and here Policy is not only on Paper. There is good work life balance in this company.

Dislikes

Salary structure they can improve. But they are giving good as per Market standard. But they can pay good salary to employees who deserve.

Culture and respect for people

Dislikes

...tly if continuous re-organisation happens and time taken for reorg is that long. Potential salary decrease for indian employees by salary restructuring exercise, this is very unique seeing the inflation in india.

Hey Shell, you are not an IT company.. you don't promote New technologies, ideas.. you are just a bunch of oil and gas workers who can work in excel

Dislikes

Either don't take contractors at all or just don't sacrifice them in the name of cost cutting
