Pros

Guaranteed 40 hrs or more a week. The benefits are very good but I would have expected Halliburton to cover more of the plan cost. Uniforms are provided. Advancement Opportunites are ample.

Cons

Early days and late nights. You are always on call. Though advancement opportunites are ample, there is alot of red tape to deal with. Pay is not as they make it seem when you initially hire on. You only receive Per Diem if you go off the clock. You actually loose money by claiming per diem for breakfast, lunch and midnight meal.
