    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • In Schlumberger you do not really felt like among co-workers, it is more like among friends who are outgoing and try to help you whenever you have any problems. All employees were really open and friendly to me, I could openly with no fear express my ideas, I believe that is because of work culture on the highest level.
