Pros

-For the outdoorsman/woman -Can easily gain experience in other occupational disciplines one may not have been provided the opportunity with previously -Overtime eligible -Pay on-par with expectations -See wildlife every day -A chance to slow down and get in touch with nature and meet people you would never meet otherwise -Company sponsored CPR first aid training -Chance to learn about native culture and to immerse and to fully separate from your normal life in every imaginable way -There's an on-island clinic with decent features -NO income tax in Alaska! -There was an opportunity through another organization to perform paid wildlife monitoring activities -The morale-building work events and games were super fun and a highlight of my work experience

Cons

-There is no such thing as personal space and personal life on an island -I do not believe that seasonal employees are offered benefits -Can be hostile depending on interpersonal and social ability -Workload not commensurate with described outcomes as seasonal employees were not provided ship schedules and expected guest counts prior to starting the season -Company glazed over true job responsibilities and continually added to what you were expected to cover (unprofessional feel) I essentially became a box-breaker-downer and crab preparer for weeks, I didn't want to do those jobs. -Breeding ground for employee abuse and neglect because of no checks and balances, low accountability, low morale at times, and remote location -The lack of access to feed yourself decently
