Ex-Shell US Oil Trading Boss Claims He's Owed $29 Million Bonus
Shell Plc's former head of oil trading in the US was stiffed on his 2020 bonus by more than $29 million, he claims in a lawsuit that shines a light on compensation inside the oil major's lucrative trading unit.
John Dimech alleges that even though his unit's profits doubled in 2020, his bonus for that year was little changed after Shell unexpectedly modified pay calculations, according to the lawsuit in federal court in Texas. If Shell had adhered to its established formula for calculating bonuses, Dimech claims he would have received about $40 million. But he only got about $11 million instead.
