I completed two contracts through this company. When I was preparing to join for a third contract, I learned that the company would not hire me again because of a negative report from a senior officer; another officer had given me a good reference, but it was ignored. I also observed that Ukrainian crew members were signed off more readily than others. The salaries were good, but long-term cooperation was not reliable.
I worked one contract with the company. I felt that non-Polish crew members were treated as inferior, while Polish staff and management received preferential treatment, which made the contract highly conflict-ridden. After my contract ended, the company wanted to extend it for another month because my replacement was not ready; I refused, and I was eventually replaced. I would not return for another contract.
I completed a contract through this company and was later scheduled to join another vessel. While I was waiting, the replacement had already been arranged without telling me, and I lost a month because of this. The company kept me waiting instead of giving me accurate information.
I worked on one of the company's vessels through Baltic Shipping Service. The attitude from the company and command staff was extremely poor, safety standards were effectively absent, and management stopped responding to my calls and messages. My salary was paid on time and in full, but I would not return to this company.
I completed a contract through this company. The ships were generally good, although some were in poor condition, and the pay and bonuses were good. I requested an early crew change well in advance and was repeatedly told it would be arranged, but my replacement was later sent to another vessel and the company asked me to remain on board until a later port. The company did not resolve the issue until I contacted the ITF, after which its attitude toward me became hostile.
