Pros

Great co-workers-experienced, sincere and committed.

Cons

No clarity on career advancement/progression. You are left to your own devices most of the time and while competence is rewarded the 'Buddy' system for job placements is pervasive

Halliburton Company- Get in, learn all you can, and get out within a reasonable time that will be acceptable on a resume

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent learning opportunity in your chosen field, given that they have a "sink or swim" environment and 70 hour work week expectations.

Cons

Although they preach that "Employees are our biggest asset", that is clearly not the case. Management (with the exception of an elite few) uses you like a sponge and has no qualms about throwing you away.
