Pros

See lots of reviews from people working on board the ships but seems things are very different at shore-ops. 9/80 work schedule is convenient, if you do not have to come in to work to catch up, sick time and vacation are good.

Cons

Management has no idea where the company is headed as if they do, they would not have lost so many honest hard working long time employees in the last few months. Constant re-orgs and hiring of temporary staff causes considerable confusion. Everyone including upper management joke about the poor pay, benefits are not better than any other company out there. There is constant mistrust, "clicks" among groups and a very counterproductive work culture. Employees are not taken care of, they have been told by management to "leave if they do not like the place".

Pros

You get to see a lot of different ports; you don't have to worry about food or paying for your room and board. You get to meet varies people from around the world.

Cons

The pay is not the best for people living in the USA. The job is still enjoyable, and the experience is worth it but this is better as a fresh out of high school or college type of role, or in a sense a way to "backpack through Europe" kind of job.
