Pros

Good people, local company, fun atmosphere, interactive, social - being on the water showcasing Seattle is a pretty fun job especially in the summer. Flexible schedule. As a mariner, working here was a great way to grow my license and learn.

Cons

Pay is not great, no real benefits when I was there. I could not afford to work here and live near the city today I don't think.
