Business Outlook

Pros

Corporate appears to be a real, live, grown up company. Salary is not terrible and until lately, overtime was plentiful!

Cons

Field locations run by many unprofessional, incompetent individuals who merely made their way up the ladder by friends and favors. Promotions largely given based upon the buddy system and harrassment and discrimination are prevalent although most employees fear for loss of employment and as such, keep it under wraps. HR does not offer the support it should to employees. DO NOT work for Halliburton field camps!

Little direction from management but finding your own way could leads to huge payout.

Business Outlook

Pros

Unlimited income potential with a degree. Without a degree you can make over $100K with a few years. Always something to learn.

Cons

Can be backbreaking work at times. Long hours away from family and home and high probability of having to move multiple times.
