Pros

Had first interview at college campus. After two weeks they contacted me if I wanted a second interview and I accepted, They payed for my meals and gas money to drive to where the second interview was going to be held. If you get a second interview you are pretty much in. You wil get very good training and experience.

Cons

Your social life will be over, was working 12-15 hour shifts. If you get at least 6 hours of sleep a day you will be lucky. Was working an 11-3 rotation. 11 days on 3 days off. If you are looking for a nice office job this is definatly not for you.

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.
