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

... the nature & company needs to save cost so that their package can be increased. Makes you feel special & healthy - Top folks & County Chair Team will make you feel special by making you work extra in India and paying you just as much that one can barely buy peanuts ensuring that your health remains at optimum level so that you deliver all the tasks and their package, Bonus & stocks increases. Work from Home - Literally it means work from home a comfort that you have because one needs to work for 15-16 hrs to ensure that your contribution helps top level travel more, work less and enjoy more comfort in their pay package and benefits. Make you feel rich:- Pay structure is so wonderful that we you feel you are from the lineage of Ambani & Adani and you don't need  money in your hand. I was so moved by this gesture I almost went to Antilia to stay with my family. Makes you believe in reincarnation- no matter which faith you belong to top management ensures they are not biased and you believe in reincarnation so that you can do your non office work in your next life. Healthier team - Management ensures that they run special events to pressurize the staff every year as reorg (fancy names like Reshape, Evolution etc..). As a result the top performers or the cream layer staff gets frustrated and moves out of the organization as a result the team is left with non cream staff (non performer) and hence healthy. We all know cream is not good for health & for company as well. Vocal for local -  Indian management is so pro vocal for locals that they will never let them out of the country & ensure that they are so deeply routed for the country that they do not ask to go out of the country for a job. Brings Maturity - within 4-5 months of joining you'll realise how mature you have become as you'll be taught that you have to work harder and harder so that the bank balance and perks increase yours but of the top management. Cost effective - Indian management is so cost effective that even after giving peanuts they will find a way to reduce that next year which helps them to increase their by the same percentage they reduce for others. Cost management - A speciality of the company is to manage cost effectively. They will reduce the spent on required things but will spend lavishly on things which are not required e.g. coffee area renovation every 2 years, world class speakers and amplifier to play music in the cafeteria where you can forget the office tension while eating lunch from a provider who cares less. Non biased approach - Top management not biased at all for diversity. They will ensure that there is a diversity at top level even though the person hired at the role doesn't know anything but that's okay as one of the goals of the organisation is to be a top Diversity and inclusive organisation. Fair Management - top management in india is consistently fair and non biased to the organisation goal. Irrespective of being the low cost establishment globally Indian management always ensure that the staff in India consistently gets lesser benefits, perks, bonus, stocks and salary compare to other establishment across globe. Such a dedicated management is rarely seen
