Pros

One of the best oil feild companies I have ever worked with. Great people and great tools to work with.

Cons

A little pricier than other companies but product is worth it. Everything else is just out standing.

It depends upon your manager

Pros

Report to a good manager who supports you and your work then SLB can be a very fine employer. It's generally best for highly mobile fresh-outs ready to go and do as told but there are many exceptions. Flexibility is required.

Cons

Not much autonomy for mid-management personnel and workers. Top management seems to follow a formula and is not interested in ideas that do not fit within it. Regarding ethics, we witness some situations in which the ends are used to justify questionable means.
