Pros

Schlumberger has pretty good pay and benefits. I would say the compensation is better than any other service company on the job market from speaking with employees from other service companies. They train their engineers pretty well. I appreciate the fact that they only allow previous field personnel within the company to move into management. The vacation of 3 weeks/year from the get go is not too bad if you can schedule it. They have a job bonus system when your in the field that is pretty good for the sacrifice in personal life for the field life. The perks are very good if you can make it more than 3 years with the company.

Cons

Management is only concerned about numbers and generating revenue. The employees are just treated like a number and not much care/concern is provided toward employees. Sometimes you may work 100 hours/week but your ONLY reward is compensation. No pat on the backs or good jobs from upper management. Also, the work environment and morale is very poor. The operators are very unhappy with the company and management. They are not afraid to let you go if they think your performance is not up to par!!!! Also, their needs to be a better link between the field and office.
