Interesting to work Crew festivities
Cost Accountant, Paymaster, Financial Specialist (Former Employee) - Onboard crew - 24 December 2021
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedEveryone can find their place for job position. There is a space for improvement in the Management area concerning nepotism with avoiding representatives and associates (promotions) to be mostly from one nation.

Competitive but rewarding
Media Manager (Former Employee) - Fleet - 29 March 2020
CCL is a competetive worplace as there are always people on the door step to change you with. It makes your life stressfull, however if you manage to show what you are capable off, you get a certain amount of security and stability with the company

Na
Youth Manager (Former Employee) - Southampton - 3 February 2019
A very buy diverse working environment, providing challenges each day, but a very enjoyable place to develop and learn.
If you like to travel working onboard cruise ships maybe the way forward, be careful which department though as some get more time off than others.

Great for Singles
Automation Technician (Former Employee) - Multiple - 13 September 2018
Great experience if you're young, ready to work and want to meet new people. I would say that the company is getting used to adding tasks for technicians without proper compensation though.
