Pros

Being in the tech domain, you find a lot of help on problem resolution from around the world of Slb. and compensation packages are quite competitive in certain geographical locations. You get quite enough training opportunities, and career is well managed in the system.

Cons

There are a lot of processed defined, but generally they are tuned by individuals. You might come across corrupt personnel matters in terms of promotions and opportunities offered. In particular, sales people are promoted quite more than tech people. many times pissing techies.

Pros

good benefits, nice schedule for those who like to vacation a lot. mostly good co-workers who work together as a team

Cons

micromanaging team leads who think they should be your friend then stab you in the back on reviews. team leads don't have a clue about the word "team"

Pros

Professional work environment with many opportunities for employees to feel like they are making a difference. Safety is noticeably the highest concern

Cons

This is a very vertical company, which means that it becomes hard to see who/where you report to and how your efforts are best used.
