Work life balance is good On some point employee centric company Some people are very nice and supportive There are couple of benefits like travelling in business class and term insurance which are good and worth mentioning it. Flexible on timing, but given the ongoing chances not sure how long will it stay same Concerned about female employees and very beneficial

Dislikes

Alot after so many reorganization. Work culture is getting worse day by day since they hired left and right without considering their key criteria Lot of favouritism and in the name of networking they are making you bootlicker If you have references (network) then you can grow irrespective how bad or good are you in your job role and skill set Double standards on promotions Anything related to finance is made too complex so that you can’t understand even your pay slip is confusing Worst insurance - amount is too less Literally not using the cutting edge technologies just publishing it Core values degraded In the name of diversity inclusion, they are hiring female candidates without considering skill set, i support woman empowerment but doesn’t mean you remove fair platform Don’t get fooled with big CTC, you don’t get everything I know people think of Shell and think big organzation with good package but this is not the case now atleast for technical roles. Shell used to be employee centric and charming company now it lost all the charm and become typical service based company with pathetic attitude. Shell is master of disguise, they know how to market and lure people but reality is different now so be cautious before joining . Once you get then you are trapped. Rest choice is yours

...are for employee, respect and care towards their employee is worth appreciating. Shell India also falls in the top 25% quartile when it comes compensation, so if you work with Shell be rest assured you are getting a very strong offer that falls in the top 25% quartile of pay masters.

Shell needs to work on it ranking system. The world is coming out of the bell curve format and Shell adopted into the same. Bell curve makes the performing employees the most unhappy as only a certain section can be rated higher. Also, shell is extremely slow in decision making, a change is hard to bring about. Shell needs to be more agile in its approach
