Pros

Met some way smart and nice people but they are long gone.

Cons

Past 10 years have lended a staff of young "Smart" punks in heat to back stab anyone as they hope for some type of advancement. Attitude of being #1 makes them way down the ladder of innovation and quality. Long time known in industry to be behind and lower pay everywhere known except at SLB sites. Once upon a time a company that respected employees and their families.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
