Pros

Lots of new ships being built. Very Safety conscious company. Spare no expense on ensuring all employees have proper PPE

Cons

Crewing coordinators can be hit or miss. This leaves shipmates the feeling of being trapped at sea with a high probability of being stuck onboard for a longer then assigned time. As a shipmate dealing with the office can quickly lead to verbal altercations an unprofessional behavior from either party.

Pros

Great Company that offer excellent employee benefits. Good shipping Services offered. Does not fire belligerent employees.

Cons

Too many layers of managers, organization needs structure. Most managers were promoted through the ranks and lack the necessary business acumen to make proper decisions. An outside consultant should be hired to reorganize the entire company. Morale among Workers is very low and complain that they have no life, work on weekends to keep up. Sales personnel are pulled in too many directions and don't have time to do "sales". Crowley is rated amongst customers to offer the worse service.

Pros

Great compensation and benefits and very open to flexible work arrangements to support lives of employees outside workplace, especially those of us who are new parents. Very supportive of training

Cons

Communication too often is top down and based on silos that leave employees below senior executives guessing. Sometimes the company takes insular approaches that are based more on control by certain people and less reflective of the best method.
