My brother spent six months working as a chef on a cruise ship.
Your time is never your own. You share a bunk. You're not meant to socialize with the passengers. You work 12 - 18 hour days 7 days a week. shore leave is not guaranteed. The company will fuck you over.
He said life is better if you have a senior position (engineer / bridge staff), or if you work as part of the entertainment crew. He did end up fucking some of the hairdressers / beauticians though.
He was glad of the experience, buy said he wouldn't do it again.
