Pros

Meet people from all over the world, have fun on the job, earn GREAT tips (and don't need to report them during taxes), get paid CDL training, live in Alaska, become a go-to person for Alaska knowledge, lots of playing during your time off, plenty of time off to play, and plenty of things to do for free or for a small charge that others pay $100's to do. You can also request days off if you need them, within reason. They WANT you to have fun and WANT you to come back, so you're treated like a king/queen by management.

Cons

Work is seven days a week with about 1 day a week off, on average, but it's a random and unpredictable day, so it's hard to plan much in advance (unless you specifically request for a day off). You won't always make as much as your peers in tips; some are more cut out for tourism than others, and it can be hard psychologically not to compare yourself to them.

Pros

Beautiful and unique work setting aboard domed railcars in Alaska's wilderness. Substantial tips for FoH employees. Company often promotes from within. Free cruise at the end of seasonal contract. Because a normal shift is 10+ hours, accrue overtime pay quickly. Very friendly company, you will not struggle to make connections. Excellent networking for other seasonal opportunities.

Cons

Long shifts and overnight travel required every shift. Housing NOT provided in Anchorage. Strict uniform policy. Communication frequently impeded by remoteness of travel, flexibility a must.
