Pros

Good Insurance policy compared to other companies.

Cons

1. No Hikes. I work for PITC and management needs to understand that IT industry is not similar to Oil and Gas Industry 2. Getting promoted is a nightmare. Remove the draconian process not suitable for IT. 3. No learnings. You can get stuck for years in the same role. 4. No Support from senior managers in learning. All the hype about mobility and career planning is just a show. 5. PITC is turning into a very badly managed IT company within Schlumberger

Pros

You get a lengthy vacation, meet some nice people.

Cons

Unfortunately in the world we face corporate politics, however never have I seen a company take this to another level. This organization could have be a great opportunity for emerging young professionals however management fails to get it right. The environment here is just short of toxic, no career opportunities to advance. They hold you back to their own accord and do as they please. Each PSC manager has shown a facade how they care about you; however each has only cared about their own progression and their bonuses. Everyone is expendable and just a number at the end of the day. There are managers who care to make changes however everyone is a puppet in the grand scheme of things. HR in this organization does not care about the employees, in essence you have no one to go for help. This has been the most unorganized organization that I have witnessed. I wish things would change however it looks like it never will.

No Work life balance

Pros

Infrastructure. Employee benefits are nice. Possiblity to change domain.

Cons

Work life balance are not at all valued by managers. No proper career progression path available. Very limited scope in IT. Promotions are not performance driven. Hard workers do not get appreciation or any extra benefits. Veteran Managers from oilfield domain are mostly managing the application team. They do not care about the team members as they compare everything with their own onshore experience which is irrelevant in IT. Merits are distributed equally to the team and the good performers are not appreciated. Work from home is not in schlumberger's dictionary. Managers insist for stretching extra hours but unofficially.
