Engaged employer

Not as profitable as Carnival, but a decent Miami employer. - Supervisor Royal Caribbean Group Employee Review

Pros

If you like to travel, you stand a good chance to do so - in the right department. Of course, not everyone enjoys this privilege, and with the company's current performance, expect reduced travel budgets. The benefits package is fair but not great, but you could do a lot worse. . .there aren't a lot of big companies to work for in Miami's service-oriented economy. Shoreside employees have access to on-site daycare and a corporate gym with classes and even massage therapists for a reasonable fee. Free parking is nice, considering that most people who work in downtown Miami have to pay for their own parking.

Cons

They do not match 401K contributions at all! Corporate strategy is kept very close to the vest on a need-to-know basis, which is kind of insulting. Top management is arrogant and elitist. Management training isn't seen as a priority, performance reviews aren't taken seriously, and no one uses behavior-based interviewing...so hiring can be sloppy.

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.
