Let me share some more of unethical practices inside Shell. They don’t even spare their employees!
Post 2004 scandal, Shell initiated a massive corporate-wide transformation Program called Downstream-One. It is an expensive program (~$9 Billion or so from 2006-2011). However, it is run like a banana republic, proclaimed governance and audit standards are often flouted blatantly. They are wasting shareholder monies! It is rife with corruption and unethical decisions.
One poor soul, who was quiet senior in this program, dared to question some of the (bad) practices and mis-management – internally whistle-blowing into bad management. Z was being bullied and harassed by immediate seniors to forcibly silent questions. When Z still continued questioning – needless to say, the individual (say, Z) was slapped a Performance Improvement Plan! I wont be surprised if Z decides to quit. Z had joined Shell 2 years ago!
Do we draw this conclusion that in Shell, one has to be scoundrel to survive other scoundrels out there or just quit? I do understand that 2 senior VPs, who joined Shell 3 years ago, in Hague quit recently, as well.
What advise would you give to Z, please? Thanks.
Regds,

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
