Working aboard can be both: Hell and heaven
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The vibe among the crew.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The communication and understanding for actually living aboard a cruise ship.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Prioritize the employee satisfaction and not the revenue!
Arbeitsatmosphäre
This is highly dependent on your colleagues. Sometimes they make it awesome, sometimes they make it hell.
Kommunikation
Communication is often a severe problem, in any regard.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
We perceive ourselves as a family.
Work-Life-Balance
Way too much working hours aboard and too few paid leave days compared to what we would get shoreside.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
This is highly dependent on your colleagues. Sometimes they make it awesome, most times they make it dificult.
Interessante Aufgaben
Every single day is different.
Gleichberechtigung
It's stressful aboard leading to increased bias behavior.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
They are not treated that specially, so I guess it is okay.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Bad equipment, too much workload, bad room availabilities.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
They do pay attention to all of this stuff.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Way too few compared to other cruise lines or companies shoreside. If you stay, it is only the vibe from your colleagues that keeps you.
Image
Very poor decisions and communication in the (recent) past lead to this.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
You can attend trainings aboard and shoreside, climb any promotion ladder, do cross trainings to other departments, etc. However, you are not supported with own education projects and must do it additionally to all your workload.
