You need to put the URL between quotes or double quotes. Without quotes bash will interpret the ampersand as the end of the command and put it in the background, which makes no sense. Try this:

curl -sk -u admin:'' 'https://10.x.x.x/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool/?$filter=partition+eq+Shared&$select=name,loadBalancingMode'

And you also had a questionmark in your query that doesn't need to be there (between Shared and select).
