Shell Philippines Reviews

As part of the Graduate programme, the company really puts in effort to help you with your career development. Graduates are granted many opportunities to network with leaders and are encouraged to have mentors, with the expectation that the Graduates will be in the pipeline for a leadership position in the future. Promotions happen when there are openings available for the next job grade, and the managers evaluate based on performance.

In the Philippines, one particular thing Shell did was provide mosquito nets to lower the chances of malaria. They are also heavily involved in the community through the Pilipinas Shell Foundation, which works with scholars to provide education opportunities and coaching for entering the workforce. Employees are also encouraged to participate in coastal cleanups!

I personally like the collaborative culture we have at Shell (at least in my role)! We are encouraged to ask shamelessly (as asking questions will allow you to get your work done more efficiently and quickly). I also like that folks are very approachable despite their seniority. No question is too silly! I am personally good friends with my teammates! We have actually gone out of town together (bonded by the processes we run and the stakeholders we work with).

Appreciate the company's commitment to diversity. While there is a notion that petroleum is a male-dominated industry, Shell continues to ensure equal opportunity no matter what gender.

Workload: Coming from a high-level steer in Q2, the workload has been heavier than before. Additional operational items required to present to different stakeholders, which limits/impacts time to do core role. Learning - Opportunity for a steep learning curve, especially for people from different industry and background. The role allows me to collaborate and learn from other individuals and develop my business acumen.

Managers are very helpful and approachable. I get to have frequent one-on-one meetings with my line manager to discuss anything from specific work concerns to my personal development. She is thorough when it comes to development plan discussions and provides great feedback, praise, and recognition on the work accomplished.

The office space is very conducive to productivity, with proper lighting and work areas. There are also facilities that promote employee health and wellness, allowing employees to take convenient breaks and time off from work at the office. The dress code is business casual, but is overall quite flexible as long as employee attire is still work appropriate.

The company is very flexible when it comes to work hours and days reporting in the office. We are currently following a hybrid setup which often gives employees more free time after work hours.

Generous ergonomic allowance to help purchase peripherals for your work-from-home setup. Choice Pot allowance, which can be applied to a wide range of transactions within certain categories, Warm clothing allowance for business travel to temperate countries.

The company offers a LinkedIn Learning subscription to all employees, and also provides sufficient internal training and learning courses that can be taken to further drive development. There are also a lot of on-the-job training opportunities that promote learning from experience and building on the theoretical knowledge from formal trainings.

I was actually a recruiter. It varies based on whether the role is for an experienced hire or for a graduate. Experienced hire: recruiter phone interview, hiring manager phone interview (optional), final interview Graduate: online assessment, video interview, final assessment (case study and behavioral interview).

The Powering Progress strategy is at the core of the business, and there is a strong commitment to driving the energy transition.
