Pros

The trainig that you recieve. If you become upset with SLB anyone else in the business will hire you because you have been trained by SLB.

Cons

Time off is limited to none. SLB has just enough employees to handle the jobs they have and no more, so when they do take on more work that just means less time off for everyone.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
