Schlumberger is a fine company to work for.

Business Outlook

Pros

Most of the people with whom I've worked with at Schlumberger are very bright. Also, Schlumberger's international presence gives one an opportunity to travel and meet people from other cultures.

Cons

One's career progress is very heavily impacted by being in the right business unit--much more so than individual competence.

Business Outlook

Pros

The technology is cutting edge, the people (in the field, but not in management) are amazing and the international culture is extremely stimulating.

Cons

The company has no moral culture. Field engineers are worked to death, local operators are exploited and management perpetually deal out criticism without ever considering or confronting the underlying issues. Management is truely useless.
