Fantastic Culture and Focus on People

Pros

I worked for Shell for 7 years and then went to another oil major. It's culture, pay, benefits and focus on people is what I loved most about my time there. Diversity and inclusion was far more mature than most corporations.

Cons

My last role was challenging as I tried to balance the birth of my first child. I left for better more progressive "parent" benefits like on site day care and less travel.
