Pros

Work is never without challenges. Most of the time, no two days are same. There is no "Office Timing" to follow strictly. Lot of responsibility is given to employees, and results expected. Minimum standard of performances are very high, creating Industry standards. Moves employees around the world, giving a vast knowledge, vision and outlook.

Cons

At times family seems to be adjusting to unconventional lifestyle, not 9-5 type. Change of countries can disturb children education / friend circle. Learning local language can be very challenging to the family, although official language remains same.

Career aspirations, people value and self development are the key strengths that you will build up when you work with SLB.

Overworked. Management don't understand technical details. It requires discipline and punctuality. The downside of working for schlumberger is that you are not sure of your job when there is a downturn in activity.
