      Lots of opportunities, but at a price

      Pros

      Especially if you are single and willing to travel, Schlumberger affords many opportunities. You can switch job functions and locations every couple of years. You meet fantastic people and see some really unique places.

      Cons

      The company has little regard for your personal life. Expect long hours with minimal vacation, and constant phone calls throughout, even as a young employee. Also, Schlumberger will put you where they want you to work, it doesn't matter if you have absolutely no interest in that job function or career path.
