Pros

Princess provides awesome cruise benefits and an employee stock purchase program which is cool. The company is located at the mall, which also has downsides but is mostly convenient for lunches and shopping on breaks. Most people at Princess are very good people and willing to help.

Cons

Every since Princess combined the back office function with HAL things have gone down hill and morale has really suffered. People are forced to work overtime and weekends and pick up the slack for HAL being disorganized and both companies being understaffed. There has also become a problem with turnover. Health benefits are crazy expensive, twice as much as my last company.

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.
