Good job if you can handle the intensity, but the company itself is odious. - MLWD Engineer SLB Employee Review

Pros

Good travel for training and occasional projects (even for those on home country contracts), lots of responsibility, good mix of autonomous and team work. Interesting technology to work with.

Cons

Terrible respect for work life balance, top heavy management structure and dire job security. Frequent top down work directives to be implemented/huge buereacracy, but massive inertia. Witchhunts in place of actual failure investigations and nepotism exists within this company.
