THEY DON'T PAY!!!! - Marine Engineer Canadian Coast Guard Employee Review

Pros

Some of the people are great, time on and off is equal. Can count on crew change being exactly every 4 weeks on the hour. Hands on work depending on the ship

Cons

THEY DON'T PAY!! The reason we go to work is to make a living unless you are a volunteer. The whole fleet has experienced pay issues. I have been getting shafted on pay for two years since the Phoenix rollout. Currently getting 500$ clawed back from every paycheque because the phoenix system glitches constantly and doesn't have a hope in hell of working properly. Pay stubs are incomprehensible. Pay centre denies there being any issues with pay, if you can even get though!!

Pros

No international travel. Good food. Good cabins. Good ‘watch’ system. 28-day rotation. Plenty of overtime.

Cons

“Clicky” subculture amongst older crew-mates does cause quite a lot of controversy while at-sea
