Pros

- good training - easy interview - easy job - easy to get promoted

Cons

- This could be a pro or a con but they hire anyone, so there’s a lot of shady people working there. - The pay isn’t great - Even if you’re a part time employee you will be asked to be working 45 hour if not more a week without the benefits. (With no overtime)

Pros

Good starting point to get familiar with vessel operations. There is a relatively effective ramp up process to build confidence at the helm of larger vessels.

Cons

Extremely low pay for what is available elsewhere - I mean not even close to the same ballpark. They make you split weekends as well so you either have Friday Saturday off or Sunday Monday off, can work for some but you miss a lot with days off being staggered. Also, they hire anyone with a pulse. Deckhands can be anyone from a college kid on summer vacation to a child predator or ex convict with murder charges. That’s not an exaggeration.
