Operational excellence is incredible. Operation coordinators treat employees with respect and are very understanding. Very good work life balance.

Good place to start a career.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good compensation and not a lot of responsibility compared to the pay. There is lots of room for advancement because in this industry there is a huge age gap right now. There is an entire generation of oilfield workers who are on the verge of retirement, and there was a lull in hiring for about 15 years. Because of all of that the middle management positions are having to be filled by people with less experience, meaning very fast advancement for younger employees.

Cons

Very long and irregular hours. Some travel and time away from home.

Pros

I've found that you get what you push hard for. I started out complacent as far as promotion and compensation go and got nowhere. I changed my mindset to a more aggressive nature and positive things have happened. They have been extremely good to my family and have taken care of me very well each time I have had to relocate.

Cons

Sometimes in a big machine such as Halliburton, it seems like the people that already work in the most visible markets, get the lions share of recognition when it's the people grinding away directly at the customer that get bypassed. Such is life. Also, I've found that the level of professionalism in office settings and in management varies GREATLY by locale. The PPR system is a joke, and I feel that is a huge negative because in a way I think it removes peoples sense of accountability in their job performance.
