The compensation for the work that I do is very low. Yes, accommodation on the ship I don't pay for or food, but still. Working every day on the ship with no days off and always being "on' was very exhausting for me my last contract. I'm a really good saver but after looking at my bank statement after the eight months of hard work I still cannot believe my salary. After completion of your contract on the ship you are on your own for the two months of "vacation" or "being unemployed". There is no health coverage offered by the ship when you sign off and go home which is a pity. Being an American citizen Celebrity does not take out for social security which is quite bad. After writing all of this I am deeply beginning to question why I am still working for this company........
