Pros

There are some really bright folks at this place, who are real fun to work with. You learn a lot being associated with those teams. But at the same time, there are many teams which does mundane software development, with no innovation and creativity whatsoever.

Cons

Career growth is pretty flat in this company. If you are hardworking and looking to climb up the ladder, this probably is not the most conducive environment to do that

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.
