Pros

I am a geek and never want to stop learning. If you are like me then Halliburton is a great company. Good benefits, daycare onsite, gym onsite, more opportunities than you ever thought could exist, and continual learning. The company offer's $5,000 a year for an employee to take classes at a university. Halliburton also has their own university. Most employees are always taking classes. This makes the employees stronger and the company. The managers listen and try to put you where you want to be. The people are happy to be there. I witness many people working extra hours but not because they must......it's because they WANT to and are happy with their career. One coworker said it best, "I wake up in the morning and I never think I HAVE to go to work today.....it's I GET to go to work today".

Cons

The employees are ALWAYS busy. Too busy. I don't know how I ever have time to complete everything I do but it gets done. I really hate all the busy work. I don't think it is Halliburton's fault. I believe it is most likely a company size issue.

Pros

Great experience, especially if just starting out in oil and gas industry. Lots of industry-leading equipment/tech/etc.

Cons

If you can't handle long hours, harsh conditions (at times), and being away from home for long periods of time, this job isn't for you. My experience at Halliburton was also that many people feel like they're just a number in that management will make frequent (and often sweeping) changes to processes, workflows, engineering schedules, etc. Lots of bureaucratic hoops to jump through in order to advance through the three levels of Field Engineer before you can "break out" and really make good money.
