Schlumberger Employee Reviews about "good pay"

Pros

Good pay ,lots of opportunity , you can choose your career pathway as you like . very diverse environment with smart people. very challenging job ( I worked as wireline field engineer ) with really good reward. Good opportunity to work in different location . Clear organisation and rules for promotion , very good internal control over the bias from standard or policy.

Cons

life and work were not balanced, you need to deal with that. Get ready to go home anytime , they don't care what have you done in the past, they have thousand of reasons get rid off you immediately unless you had good connection with upper management. Being in right place,right time with right people is the key for your success in this company , no matter how brilliant you are.

Pros

Great peers, good pay, interesting work

Cons

Lacking coherence in technical strategy across product lines. New technology development working in silos.

Pros

Good pay and benefits if you are on International Mobile contract.

Cons

1. No respect for regular employees and junior managers from Senior Leadership. 2. No support to employees from HR. Most of HR managers are incompetent, disrespect employees, covering up policy violations. HR is your enemy in this company. 3. Office politics are taken to the next level. Some nationalities are forming cliques and favour their own. 4. In order to get promoted you need to forget your dignity and kiss your bosses backside all day long. 5. Lack of general organizarion. Everyone ia lost. Middle management is expected to deliver without proper authority and support.
