Pros

The money, training and opportunity for advancement is very good, if you can get out of the field.

Cons

You work 24 hours, live on a rig, sleep very little, and never know when you will have a day off. When you do have a day off, you are afraid whenever your phone rings, because you might have to pack up and go to a job for an unknown amount of time, usually 1 month...might be 3. 24 hours, no weekends, no holidays.

Pros

Safety amd awareness are big things at Schlumberger. A lot of employees work in the field on boats and oil rigs so the level of danger and accidents is increased; however, Schlumberger goes the extra mile to ensure their employees are as safe as possible.

Cons

When it comes to information technology, Schlumberger tends to do things in a round about way. They are overly cautious, almost paranoid, about safety but fail to implement simple safe guards.
