Halliburton is a great company, but it is not as good in Azerbaijan as may be in the United States. - Drilling Fluid Engineer Halliburton Employee Review

Pros

Overseas training opportunities Career growth (even very slow at times) Some opportunities to work overseas

Cons

Management is very cautious about increasing salaries. You have to have some unbelievable performance in order to get some more money. Even if you show very good job performance they do not rush to boost your wages. They try to find some excuses in order to delay your salary increase. Managers get annual cash bonuses if they save more money and the best way to save the money is to cut it from employees' salaries...very efficient way indeed :)

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.
