Pros

A lot of learning opportunities. Lateral movement within organization is easy and encouraged.

Cons

When it is shorthanded, expect to be deprioritised based in project. Pay and work input can feel unbalanced. Hyper focused on DEI to the point it feels biased for non-DEI hire

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.
