Pros

Excellent in-class training. A lot of young talent. A lot of opportunities to move into another field if you stick it out long enough. Great paying job right out of school. Field experience a must for those looking to work in the Oil & Gas industry.

Cons

A lot of office politics. Get blackballed by major operators because of agreements they made not to take Halliburton engineers/employees. Just a number to the company. Hours can range from 40-110 hours/week. Field engineers average about 84 hours/week on a 2 week on/1 week off schedule.
