Here’s How We Help Optimize Your Schlumberger Benefits
Optimizing Your Pension Plan
Schlumberger’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan is a crucial component of your retirement. And if you’re a Schlumberger professional who built their careers working globally, you may have accrued pension benefits across multiple plans—both domestically and abroad. Each of these plans often comes with varying rules and specific timelines regarding when you can elect to take your benefits. We can help you navigate the complexities by coordinating the timing of your U.S. and international pension elections based on your unique financial situation. We offer thorough analysis and projections, whether you are exploring early retirement or planning to use your pensions as a steady income source. Our guidance helps ensure that you confidently understand how this guaranteed income fits within your larger plan.
Enhancing Your Savings And Profit-Sharing Plan
We help you optimize your participation in the Schlumberger Savings and Profit-Sharing Plan, including executing after-tax contributions, facilitating Mega Backdoor Roth strategies, and helping ensure that your investments are in line with both your comfort with risk and your expected retirement timeline.
Navigating Equity Compensation And Stock Options
Whether you benefit from RSUs, Incentive Stock Options (ISOs), or the Employee Stock Purchase Program (ESPP), we help you break down the details. We develop strategies around vesting, tax obligations, and the diversification of your holdings to keep your financial future resilient and in line with your objectives.
Advising On Supplementary And Restoration Plans
Schlumberger’s supplemental and restoration plans offer additional value for key employees. We explain your payout possibilities, clarify tax considerations, and help you coordinate this income stream as part of your larger retirement strategy.
