Pros

Travel the world. Invite family and friends to cruise if you can get through the paperwork. Work with people from around the world. Have all expenses paid and save some money. Cheap drinks at the crew bar.

Cons

Spend a lot of time away from your family and friends. Long working days. You will be at your worksite 24 hours a day. Any time you have to visit a gorgeous place you will be thinking about getting back to the ship. Live with the same small group of people for months at a time. Corporate culture is terrible. Very focused in pointing out mistakes and shortcomings. A LOT of rules. Very focused on disciplinary actions that most times don't make any sense.

Pros

Pay is competitive. You get a free cruise.

Cons

The culture here was ok, though not the best. Now with a VERY strict 9-5 policy, the entire company is feeling the grip of the execs. No exceptions for anyone who has a doctors appointment or needs to pick up a kid or adjust their hours slightly to get through life. Many employees have to work extra hours, travel across the world, and work based on other time zones due to projects spanning across the world. No matter, 9-5 or pack your things. Execs are demanding more control, they seem to forget that they placed their office all the way in the traffic zoo of the Port of Miami. No one is happy and now you can hardly get out of the port at a decent time. Would have loved to see some execs and vps fight against this but it seems they only care about protecting themselves, and Mr Liberty is having his way. I hope he enjoys this act of control as it is making his employees miserable. Expect high turn over soon or layoffs, or both. Many of the small benefits have been rolled back without any announcement (food discounts, commuter discounts) without any notice. We have lost the plot, we are selling vacations, not saving lives.
