Pros: I liked the hybrid work option for office days, which helped a lot. For a large corporate shipping company, they offer pretty solid benefits. Colleagues in the Vancouver office are generally supportive.
Cons: Work-life balance can get tough, especially with urgent maritime logistics issues. You often need to be available for calls outside typical office hours. It's the nature of the global shipping industry, but it still impacts personal time.
Advice to Management: Maybe look into better shift rotation for key operational roles to ease after-hours burden. Support for personal time off is crucial for employee well-being in this demanding sector.
