Vantaggi
Amazing itineraries on cruise ships operated by Hardings. Not so much stress from Head Office. Depending on a type of ship, pretty easy job great for young people who want to travel for free and actually enjoy all the ports they visit as they almost never work in ports.
Svantaggi
bad commission structure. Jeweler makes more money than a manager or assistant manager. Only bonuses upon achieving the target and still pretty embarrassing for both staff and management. Extreme low pay considering the responsibility, especially on bigger ships and almost no difference in pay if you run a ship with 6 staff or 20 staff. HB is usually one of the lowest paid department on the ship. Front desk clerk makes more money than HB Manager. No benefits, no vacation paid.
