Pros

I think the best thing I face in SLB is pure international and multicultural atmosphere. There are no borders between countries. I know that there are many companies with advance technology but SLB is the first with combination of the technology plus multicultural atmosphere.

Cons

you are often pushed to relocation if you ask about changing of position or increasing of salary. Many people prefer work in one place and be able to make own career.

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.
