Pros

Recent college grads get a lot of varied responsibility early on- carry out high price contracts with clients, manage operators, maintain millions of dollars of equipment.

Cons

The schedule is very isolating, its hard to maintain healthy relationships with anybody outside of work. Many of the managers are incompetent.

Pros

Great training schemes and diverse career paths. Life in the field can be tough but at the end of the day it's rewarding and worth the long and intense working hours.

Cons

Work-life balance is a critical downside one can experience when working in the field. Working on rotation at a remote location (most typical scenario for a field engineer) doesn't allow you to take proper care of personal aspects in life.
