Pros

There are immense opportunities to do and be whatever you wish in Schlumberger. By the virtue of its size and expertise, you can find what you like. From High performance computing to Chemistry, from Houston to Siberia and everything in between.

Cons

You have to be careful to manage your time and get a work -life balance. Due to its size there are opportunities but also sluggishness which someone from small company may not like.

Good company, but work dominates your life

Geophysicist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Schlumberger is a highly international company that offers motivated employees with exceptional opportunities for job growth and travel and will give them responsibilities at a young age. They combine strong technical offerings with shrewd market positioning, and at the top level are extremely well managed. I find the company to have a lot of professional integrity and pride.

Cons

High turnover of mid-level management in my segment has made long-term strategy and standards somewhat incoherent, undercutting the efforts of the competent technical staff. Work-life balance is generally poor. Frequent relocations make it difficult to build a life outside of work. Finally, as with any big company internal processes, bureaucracy and politics drain a lot of one's time and energy.
