Pros

They offer good benefits, they are unionized (SIU and UNIFOR), Travel is paid, They are always hiring

Cons

There is a disconnect between the office and the ships crews, They are not big on preventative maintenance despite claiming to be, If given a choice between a permanent fix that will cost money in the short term but save money in the long term and a quick patch that will cause more issues later but save money right now, they will always choose the quick patch.
