[Question] Should I work for a climate tech company owned by Shell?

I’m currently interviewing for a Software Engineering position with sonnen, which sells home batteries, some energy services, and even a Virtual Power Plant. But, I just found out that they have been acquired by Shell in 2019.

Intuitively, this feels like a much worse deal for me to take. If I were working for sonnen, the profits would go to Shell. I also think that Shell might be using sonnen for greenwashing and not have a real interest in climate solutions.

Or maybe it doesn’t really matter who owns the company, as long as sonnen does good work?

I do have other alternatives, so I have the privilege of being picky. How do you think being owned by Shell changes the moral value of working for sonnen?
