Pros

Overall they have great benefits.

Cons

When it's busy they dont care about time with family unless you use vacation. They'll run you in the ground and are always short handed. A few people have the whole department on their back. It's really stressful. Management doesn't care but when they hire you they'll say other wise. Just because you get your competencies done doesn't mean you'll get a raise. If you're not on a project offshore you'll just be bouncing around with no consistency. Land sucks. They'll want you to edit your DOT hours. Take almost 7-10 years to get where you want by that time you'll be so fed up and probably find something better. Halliburton was once a great company but Management is bringing it down.
