Enroll in the Retirement and Savings Plan?

SLB makes an employer base contribution of 6%, and you automatically contribute 4% of your eligible annual earnings to your DCPP each pay. SLB also matches 100% of your 4% contribution, for a total overall DCPP contribution of 14%! Until you update it, your investment option will be the target date fund closest to your 65th birthday, and your beneficiary will be your estate.
