    What’s it like working at Aceh Darussalam Maritime Academy?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at Maritime Academy appreciate the supportive environment and feeling of being part of a family while working with colleagues and management. They value the learning opportunities to gain new knowledge and experience, as well as the flexible working hours. Some see the challenging work culture as a positive aspect.

    However, there are some potential challenges raised, such as procedures that may not be achievable for a smaller company. There are indications that progressing to a permanent role can take a long time of service. Compensation is also noted as an issue, with salary revisions being poor, particularly for experienced mariners, and no bonus structure in place. Additionally, the location being far from the city centre could pose difficulties for some employees.
