Pros

Nothing is worth telling anyone. No Pros , only Cons.

Cons

I had joined the company thinking that i would progress. My manager did not help me and gave me work that was not completely not my forte. Only certain duties were given to me. My colleagues who trained me wen through the procedure so fast that i had to learn the system on my own. The team was very rude and truly sad that there are people in companies who cant even help their colleagues. It is truly a shame that companies are recruiting certain kind of employees. The other job tasks for which they had hired me were not given to me. I asked the reason why this is happening and my manager advised that I will have to continue with what i am doing. After six months, i again asked and still they kept me in the same place. No sympathy or value for an employee. I wanted to give feedback to their human resources department, but i got the body language that all the managers were involved in such kind of office politics. I then decided that the best thing would be to look out for a new job and move out from here. I was persistent and made up my mind and finally i got a break from such negative people. I am happy to be out and would highly advise people not to go there. A quotation which is apt for this company is "All that glitters is not gold". Dont be cautious, be extra cautious and avoid the mental torture and negative people that you have to go through. Trying to save as many people as possible.

Pros

Good internship program, talks from different teams ensure that you become familiar with the shipping industry and how the company works. The people there are great. They love working there. Interns have scheduled meetings with senior leadership. Senior leadership is super easy to talk to and comfortable to be around.

Cons

It depends on the team, but some interns did not have a project/assignment ready for them to work on at the start.
