Best Place to Start, but Company Lay-offs without Loyalty

Mwd/lwd field engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

This is the best service company to start with. You will be in demand with both operators and other service companies. Training is exceptional and above industry standard and technology of course is the best in-class.

Cons

During downturns SLB retrenches indiscriminately. Therefore, it may not be a secure job in this volatile oil & gas industry. SLB is known to retrench as a first move in a downturn. Also, a level of arrogance exist with the SLB crews. Toxic relationships exist with cell managers and racism have been experienced.

Pros

Good place to get some experience and potential for promotion if your willing to step on your co-workers. It's all about who you know and what your willing to do to keep your job or advance. You would'nt believe it!

Cons

Many,,, worked to the bone for little pay. High stress, high expectations with no recognition. Never ending turnover from higher management down. Forget about your personal life, you don't have any.
