Pros

Schlumberger is the company with a good, health and dynamic atmosphere. Different ability for carrier growth in all part of the world only if you are active and ready to work hard. Multinational team is a good place for job in friendly environment.

Cons

Job is there where is the client, that mean that you need to change your country, location, friends and cities.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
