Desventajas
Reorganizations, open resourcing and footprinting activities may seem a bit too frequent. Due to the management structure and corporate culture, one may at times feel that too much emphasis is placed on bending over backwards to perform inconsequential tasks and to drop much more meaningful tasks in order to do so. Typically this will be a simple mandate from above which leads to each subordinate level of management scrambling simply in order to please their superiors. There is also a tendency within Shell for various types of meetings to be presented as optional but for which management will deem "strongly suggested." Management seems mold words to their agendas as these strongly suggested meetings are optional on paper but in attitude are quite mandatory. Mandatory meetings are not a problem but honesty and decency demands that you call them such.
