      Schlumberger - A great product, a self centred management

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great technology, great training, great reputation. Good benefits package. Diversity of exposure. Good support in the early career stages. Early empowerment.

      Cons

      Self centred management, always focusing on their superiors. Arrogant (can live with that) but also ignorant - just hoping and praying to move to next promotion. Supporting the party line gets you up. Rebellious, outgoing, doing it right attitudes not tolerated. Get this right, and can be very profitable based on the technology and hard working workforce.

      Overall good place to work.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Schlumberger offers it's employees excellent benefits and a rather relaxed enviroment in which to work. The pay is decent although less than a lot of the other gas/oil companies.

      Cons

      Schlumberger is a very large company and thus there is a lot of beaurocracy which makes a lot of unnecessary work. Lots of hoops to jump through that you would not necessarily have with a smaller company. The pay is not as competitive as other companies out there. Bonuses are only up to 20% and no raises at all this year.

      Good place to work but too much politics.

      Pros

      They respect people and create a positive working environement. Work is interesting and you can get a lot of responsibility early on.

      Cons

      Politics and lack of transparency in HR is very bad. Transfers/promotions is a very convoluted and opaque process. Most people don't get the transfer they want unless they threaten to quit.
