Pros

Management take bribes to offer rewarding careers to junior staff members who could never get to a senior position, poor management

Cons

No understanding of Manufacturing, costs, lack of transparency, dishonest management, accept cash payments from junior staff members to offer them work favours, HR is useless to even identify the problem, overall don't waste your time working for such a place where your world class engineering is forced to hidden place because your manager accepted payment from jenior staff member in a restaurant

Pros

Great experience, especially if just starting out in oil and gas industry. Lots of industry-leading equipment/tech/etc.

Cons

If you can't handle long hours, harsh conditions (at times), and being away from home for long periods of time, this job isn't for you. My experience at Halliburton was also that many people feel like they're just a number in that management will make frequent (and often sweeping) changes to processes, workflows, engineering schedules, etc. Lots of bureaucratic hoops to jump through in order to advance through the three levels of Field Engineer before you can "break out" and really make good money.
