Pros

None I could find. Nothing.

Cons

Shell Business Operations - SBO Bangalore mass hired some employees without skills even from third class companies, you can judge that by attending their interview. SBO Bangalore is far from a product company. Full of service mentality people. Hence you know the company policies. They bother more on non work aspects,for e.g. what time you come? Have you completed 8 hours? No body asks you if you completed your work. Unless if you have a lobby/come from your managers company, your skills will not be respected even if you are a top performer. You might be asked to leave if you do not become part of the politics/lobby. It is the last company on our planet for Technical employees. They are far from reality when it comes to technology. Do not go by the x digit figure you see on paper. Bonus is big chunk of CTC, in-hand is less. You won't get bonus if you leave the company before yearly cycle. "Stay away from most plagued area in Shell, Downstream Retail." And specifically FPS Team - Fuels Pricing Team. HR's are typical service mentality people listens to managers. No brain, no questioning ability. Most importantly, If you want to destroy your career please join Shell. You are good decision makers, please see rest of the reviews and then decide your career. Few colleagues are typical characters, without knowledge of anything, Strictly ZERO knowledge of anything. Wasted my career here.

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
