Constant reorganization and cost cutting: opiniones de empleados con el puesto de Senior Mechanical Engineer en Shell

Work life balance is non existent at a refinery/chemical plant. Been with Shell for 7 years and went thru 3 reorg/layoffs already. Seems like the industry growth isn’t just slowing, it’s contracting. Management decision is very slow. They seem to have lofty goals but doesn’t really accomplish them. More and more I feel like management is trying to push more and more site wide initiatives onto individual contributors which is frustrating because individual contributors don’t have the same pull as a manager or senior manager. Constantly in meetings that feel like nothing is accomplished and no value is added.
