This cuts to a bird’s eye view of the view below, seen through the window, where we see people moving about a courtyard in the business complex. Next, we see wide-angle footage of multiple levels of glass-fronted offices in adjacent office towers.

My grandfather, grandmother, or my parents were not a part of this mindset. They never put any restrictions on my dressing, on my talking, on my education.

When I joined Shell, that’s when I realized, it is putting in so much effort to invest in new technologies.

[Abhilasha]
I think Shell is providing society the reliable and affordable access to energy, because its prime focus is people.

It’s a very people-centric company, and to be working in a company which genuinely cares for you is a big thing for me.
