Pros

Friendly onboard atmosphere. Good salary and bonus. Great leave ratio. Reliefs usually on time. Exceptional training and development program. Positive culture. Opportunities to move into a shore based role for those wishing to move ashore.

Cons

Promotion appears to be more by seniority than meritocracy. There is a formal promotion structure but after achieving this promotion, for junior ranks at least, is either by being in the right place at the right time or having reached the top of the queue.

Pros

Supportive team environment with good learning opportunities and exposure to large-scale projects. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company offers strong brand recognition and career development resources.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow due to layers of management, and processes sometimes feel overly bureaucratic. Workload and priorities can shift quickly, which may create stress depending on the team.
