Pros

Career Opportunities and money, growth prospects and job reputation. In general, only applicants with a major in electrical engineering are hired by Schlumberger. The turnover rate for wireline engineers is very high and demand for them is also very high, so Schlumberger may be hiring people with other types of engineering degrees. Schlumberger is a reputable organisation, which is something that will only assist you in getting further employment (it’s like coming from a Big4 background, it’s very highly sought after, employers just assume you’re a good employee).

Cons

No personal life, no time for friends and family
