Good company in terms of work culture,pay package ,job security and work life balance

Dislikes

If you are a non-IT engineer, the growth prospects in terms of technical learning and field related skills are almost nil .Most of the projects only utilize your current skills and does not have anything new to learn ,you will be able to learn few new IT tools but those will be pretty irrelevant .

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
