Pros

life long learning, big money, you get to travel. A family friendly company, and you will get all the support you can for relocation. You get a real responsibility from day one, however there is always someone who is ready to help if you get stuck. Very good knowledge share base. If you have a specific porblem, you can reach to any emplyee of schlumberger worldwide to benefit from his experience.

Cons

Requires very hard work on the expense of your persnal life. Other companies can still pay more than schlumberger for similar tasks. The HR should more fair and open minded.

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.
