      Pros

      Good when oilfield is going well

      Cons

      Horrible managers who don't have a clue to run a business and are not leaders. They are the only ones not hurting financially and everyone else is getting stuff repoed

      A Soul Crushing Experience

      Pros

      The travel was pretty nice and the training was world class. Very diverse company with people at every location from one part of the world or another. The discounted stock purchase program was a great perk.

      Cons

      The company is so huge that employees are seen as a number rather than a human being. The paperwork is horrible, repetitive and unnecessary, sometimes lasting longer than a job itself. Management frequently made horrible decisions with respect to product line direction. Despite all the lip service made to safety, the one serious concern I had brought up regarding it had intense push back from management. Driving a company truck is a horrible experience with their driver monitors. Products I ran were not competitive versus equipment from other service companies. Promised promotions seem denied frequently, even after fulfilling that promotion's requirements. SLB has no qualms for withholding job bonuses for very minor or no fault failures.

      Pros

      People and culture makes it a great place to work. Pay is average and they encourage work life balances.

      Cons

      Great politics going on in the office. Performance evaluation is biased. It only pays for those that can do eye service.
