Pros

- many ships - gathering technical experience in a fast paced environment - many experienced people willing to help - good place for making a lot of acquaintances - possibly enough attendances

Cons

- below standard salaries / no bonuses (always promised but finally not given) - negative work-life balance, too many overtime and pressure - no recognition of employers efforts from the supervisors', no room for evolving once hired - selfish & competitive against firms within the sector, sabotaging employees who wish to evolve within or out of the company.

Pros

None whatsoever. It was close to my home, so commute was easy.

Cons

Equipment is terrible, old and abused. Shop on site is full of unqualified retards. Guy who owns shop is greedy and self centered. Entire company is poorly ran, the entire yard looks like a junkyard. I wouldn't be surprised if this company goes out of business. CSA scores are poor, numbers speak for themselves. If you care at all about your driving record or if your equipment will get you to your destination and back home safe, this is not the place to work.
