Pros

Oil field pays higher than other 9-5 jobs. You are given more consecutive time off than regular jobs. Opportunity to make a lot of money based on work provided. Bonuses are given by how many jobs you can catch, not hourly.

Cons

During your work week, scheduling is inconsistent because you are working "on demand" and must be available 24/7. Pay scale is not consistent, some long difficult jobs do not pay as much as the workers deserve. Jobs are "on demand" meaning you could work 15 days and not catch any jobs (no jobs = no bonus)

Pros

Close to work. Bigger company to move around in for advancement or job change or even department change. Look forward to making a "Career" with SLB instead of just seeing it as a job.

Cons

BIG company. Sometimes have to be in the right place at the right time and know the right people. But overall, not alot of Cons.
