Saga Holidays Employee Review

Great for a Cruise Ship Engineers

Engineer Officer (Current Employee) - Dover, Kent - 16 August 2023

The watch-keeping patterns are different compared to the typical 4 on 8 off watches. In a day you will do a 5 hour watch and a 3 hour watch and its designed so you have more rest hours in bulk.The senior engineers are amazing and really focus on the junior officers career and skill development, Salary is good, you can chose to do 2 months on/off or 3 months on/6 weeks off,

Pros

Good crew, good career development, good salary

Cons

Food is awful

Quiet and pleasant

Photo manager (Former Employee) - Dover, Kent - 4 May 2019

99% of the guests are over 60, which makes the ship a very quiet place to work. Guests are nice, crew are great . Not a great salary, but if you are a beginner and want to gain experience and travel, is amazing.

Pros

Great staff, great food

Cons

Low salary

Vared work but systems need updating and are very slow. Great holidays but can be a little expensive for some people. Customers are usually very nice.

Fun, hard work best work family

Cruise Guest Advisor (Former Employee) - WFH - 12 June 2023

A great job but long hours and very hard work. Brilliant people to work for, great place if you thrive on stress. Can be a bit overwhelming, stressful when things go wrong, but they keep everyone wanting to work hard and together
