Pros

Clarksons is well known in shipping so it's a good name to have on your CV. There is a lot of expertise within the organization.

Cons

Organizational structure is deeply hierarchical. Management rule by decree. Very stuffy 'male pale and stale'. Shouting matches across the office are not unusual, particular staff members frequently moved to tears as a result. Bullying is open. Every process and product is micromanaged. Management often behave in ways that would be deemed unacceptable in other workplaces or indeed most general spheres of life. Pay structure is opaque and employees are instructed not to discuss their salaries. Expectations are high, hours can be very long, staff are often highly stressed. Work life balance is terrible.
