Im applying for work at Signet Maritime and have a good feel for the company. I wanted to hear from others on what they know about the company good and bad.
Thanks
I have a friend who used to work for them. His only complaint was the schedule and lack of travel pay. If you want to work 2 for 1 and live close then I think he would say they are good to go.

What are they paying & schedule?
Are you looking at going to Pascagoula or Ingleside? There is a big difference.
Ive got an interview with them in a few weeks in ingleside for ab/tankerman, anybody have an idea on pay?
Unequal time. They want you to live local & don’t pay travel.
I live right across the bay in Corpus. Got the impression that they let you go home at night if there isnt anything going on, figured I would give 'em a look see.
A little different at Signet. Dress nice. Clean shave. They aren’t allowed facial hair. They are big on appearance.
Yea, the recruiter that I talked to mentioned that. she said wear “church” clothes, no long hair, no pierced ears and if you have any tattoos make sure they are covered. No big deal, I can get behind the piercing thing, seen to many young guys out here with lips and chins and eyebrows and all that shit pierced. starting to get a little outta hand if you ask me.

Does it affect safety or the day to day operation of the vessel? NO? Then who gives a shit?
Oh I am so sorry. How dare i voice my opinion, but thank you so much for yours
Yes, it does effect safety. Piercings are snagging hazards (I’ve seen a couple of them get ripped out). Which might then expose me to the unnecessary risk of some pierced moron’s AIDS or hepatitis tainted blood.
While I could care less about small ear piercings, I don’t want anything beyond that on my boat. About 90% of people over 35 and about 50% of people under 35 are simply grossed out by facial piercings and excessive visible tattoos. If you like food stamps and unemployment, then have a it.
If an employer want to have a certain level of professional decorum that is his right. It is your right to pierce yourself, dress how you want, grow your hair how you want…and to get a job somewhere else
