SPS, tell them what you think

Think D&I. Think 8% inflation and then the gaslighting that a 2% raise is really better for you, because Gretchen is SO SMART. Think no bonus because someone in Nigeria had a car accident. Think managers who can't do but check the ESG boxes. Think... — read more

It could be much worse

There are worse things than working for a company run by those who you don’t agree with. Shell is not ideal but it pays well and provides good benefits, which is more than you can say for most other places. Not to mention being unemployed. There are... — read more

8% bonus to staff

Shell to give staff 8% bonus after record profits. (I didn’t get the memo…is this for all staff or was this the stock awards which vested recently?) https://stocks.apple.com/AV9wxy4vQSNa2WpJ0FL-q-Q

I don't want to complain but

it would have been more appropriate to give everybody an equal monetary bonus such as the bonus shares we got recently .....

What a joke

This company over the past few years has become a joke. How about we focus on increasing value for the shareholders, like we are suppose to do. Renewables, Diversity, Roe v Wade, Social Justice, etc is going to run this company into the ground. ... — read more 

COVID Spread in the Office

Seems like more and more employees are experiencing COVID symptoms and yet Gretchen and their "caring" staff have not said a word about the issue. How can they say their primary care is the safety of their employees but say nothing and do nothing. ... — read more 

Hey Ben, how did these buybacks work out for you ?

Noticed you are done "spending" the money you got for the Permian and share price has barely budged. So that was money well spend right ? I think you need to fully reinstate the pre covid dividend ....

Keeping the talent here

When I started working here, I felt privileged to have the opportunity to work and learn from some of the greatest experts in their field. Now I wonder if Shell is doing anything to retain the talent here?

Abortion ruling

Any Shell comment ? Surely good reason to reiterate support for employee rights on reproductive care and explore plans to move out of the state of Texas in the long run . Not an OIl and Gas company anyways anymore .....

When did the managers stop managing?

Lately it’s like the managers are just too occupied with their own ambitions and plans for further promotion that they don’t do the very thing that they are paid to do, manage. That behavior was always present to some degree but lately it has become... — read more 

Special severance for near retirement employees?

Anyone hear of a situation, lately, where severance was offered for employees nearing retirement. I'm talking about those cases where an employee has been employed for 30+ years? I guess you could just wait for the next package that may be around... — read more 

Quitting now is pure idiocy

A lot of people are choosing to quit but doing that now is pure idiocy, in my opinion. First of all, O&G is doing great. You should never leave a winning team. Second of all, the compensation here is still better than at plenty of competition. And... — read more 

More than the minimum flair

VP has too little to keep him busy. Told me that others are decorating their cubes with personal items, pictures, stickers, why not me? Seems very focused on SPS. Wants to see smiles and flair and personal photos on Yammer. What the fu-k did I get... — read more

Shell Chemicals DPK

Any idea if Shell plans on keeping Deer Park chemicals in their portfolio?

Mid Year Raise Probability?

What are y’all’s thoughts? It was being “discussed,” which I take was just misdirection to keep people clinging to false hope.

No SVS anytime soon

Talent is less and less important

I’m not saying there aren’t many talented employees here still or that Shell has become a mediocrity company. It just seems to me that everything is slowly moving towards that and I really wouldn’t like that to happen. How much will the talent and ... — read more
