Pros

If you don't have any other options for employment - they will pay you to do some work for them. Olivier, the CEO, is actually quite nice to interact with and generally personable.

Cons

Lots of snakes! The borderless careers of the past have nearly disappeared, as they have to be very cost conscious due to mismanagement of the activities. The company is generally sexist and continues to promote and reward managers who have a history of sexist behaviors and ethics line investigations continuing to pile on. The culture in general is pretty toxic and there's a lot of 'blue-washing' when it comes to every discussion about company culture. Also - there's a lot of arrogance (customers try to tell them this too).

My SLB experience

Pros

I worked in what was previously Cameron, The people and the work were great in my area.

Cons

Not all areas were as great as mine. The new SLB groups were not as friendly and the work environment was more tense. Went many years without any raises after buyout. Really, my worst experience there was how they handled personnel during the Pandemic.
