      It's all depends on which geomarket you serve

      Pros

      The exposure to the international business is certainly eye-opening.

      Cons

      Pay package are bias to management accountant even though we have the similar workload. Pay also depend on the person's nationality. You would be surprise that same position would earn double or triple of my current pay just because they were offered from other countries.

      Good training and benefits, no work-life balance

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Company has excellent training programs and reasonable benefit packages (although sometimes HR does not share all the information voluntarily and it is left to employees to find out and ask for them!)

      Cons

      Company has become too big and very hierarchical. Too many layers of management. It is easy to get into a management role ( since there are just too many management roles to fill!) but it doesn't mean much since you are not really developing any valuable skills which would help you in the outside market. The skills which are developed are Schlumberger specific or oilfield service company specific at best. If you are involved on the operation side there is no work-life balance and no respect for people's personal time. You carry your laptop everywhere and are expected to be available no matter if it is evening, weekend or on vacation.

      The best people, the best technology, a rewarding career

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Never a dull moment. Every job that you do challenges you, develops you, and pushes you towards your ultimate potential. You get to see the world and interact with so many different and diverse cultures.

      Cons

      As the saying goes - no pain, no gain. You and your family need to be prepared to make sacrifices if you want to climb the corporate ladder.
