Pros

Company is actively growing which will potentially add more opportunities to field personnel. Generally considered higher paying compared to competitors.

Cons

Work is limited by the number of active vessels. Management style is very guarded, with nepotism being extremely high within the company. Logistics support of offshore personnel can be extremely difficult and unprofessional. Promotion process is not based on competency but more so on vessel personnel opinions and communication to the office.

Pros

Company is competitive with there pay, and seems to be growing with C-Innovation's acquisition of Rovop and Chouest's (parent company) acquisition of Kystdesign. CI's fleet is steadily contracted for large operators such as BP and Murphy.

Cons

Fleet is confined to being on Chouest vessels with the exception of a select few. This brings subpar living conditions onboard for many. Nepotism is the rule for any and all movement. With Superintendents dictating your vertical movement. Which leads to road blocks for many talented individuals as they are perceived as threats and others that lack knowledge being pushed for promotions. And with the lack of vessel/system numbers promotions are only available when one becomes open. Inventory controls are fumbled at best and adequate spares are managed solely at the discretion of the supervisors and Superintendents onboard. Which can cause gaps in onboard spares during critical downtime. Overall the fleet lacks experience in technical ability and work outside of basic IMR.
