Pros
- Extremely diverse - There is no other company that's as diverse as Schlumberger is. It is truly admirable. - International Career - If you want to travel the world, then this is the place to be - Decent benefits - What they dont pay you in cold hard cash is somewhat offset by a 401k match, decent health care options, etc - A lot of what is said depends on your work location and segment. Life is generally good if you're in Research or Engineering.
Kontras
- Mediocre salary - this holds for all divisions in the company. field, software, IT, sales. - Layoffs - we hire em young and fire em old - if your field of study isnt specific to Oil and Gas, dont get invested in it. You'll be laid off anytime EPS (earnings per share) is at risk.
