Pros

initial training was good potential to make good money

Cons

working constant rotation of 3 weeks at offshore rig/ 1 week at home/office Days at office are considered as "off days" Too much to learn too quickly thrown in at deep end Clients at rigsite take out hatred for schlumberger on you. All other service hands hate you Redicoulus nanny culture The hardest part of the job is the self imposed "schlumbeger way of doing it" Redicoulous amount of paperwork If your a specialist be ready to do same job as the guy next to you for half the money
