Pros

A lot of potential to earn decent money in busy times. SLB provides young engineers a great opportunity to manage people.

Cons

Schlumberger is an ok company but the support and backing for the field personnel is non-existent. This is a CYA first second and last type of place, which limits the effectiveness of the company's true principles.
