Pros
Job security especially in a volatile market. It's nice not wondering if you'll still have a job on Monday. The benefits are awesome and the pay is fair. Halliburton has the best training programs in the oil field and they give their employees ample opportunities to continue their training and expand their knowledge about oilfield services.
Cons
Long hours. The pay could be more competitive. Halliburton has a bad reputation from the media so many people look down on employees of big red. As with any oil field service company, our high times and low times are controlled by the market and sometimes we get blamed for high energy prices when in fact Halliburton has no control over the market.
