16 hour days 7 days a week handling fish then cleaning up every 8 hours or so. The breakdown that i hot between hours and pay is 11 per hour for a trawler and the only reason this is legal is because its contract work and pay is bassed off the catch and your share level depending on your roll on the boat and how many years you been with them. About 95% of the crew are immigrants from either Africa or the Philippines all great people once you get to know them and if you dont live in the states then this might be the job for you but it can be backbreaking if your over 6ft tall cause everything is designed for shorter people even the freezer suits i got the largest size and still didn't have full range of motion.

While working an eighty-four hour work week under harsh weather conditions, a typical work day on an Alaska fishing vessel would consist of leading a thirty person fish processing crew, fillet inspection and data recording / reporting of findings. It would also consist of maintaining Standard Sanitation Operating Procedures (GMP's and CCP's). Time management is a key aspect of a Fillet QC Manager's daily duties.
The most challenging aspects of my employment with ASC is that the fishing business is dangerous, seasonal and inconsistant.
The most enjoyable aspect of my employment with ASC would be that it is a diverse, goal oriented and productive work place.
I am in interested in finding full time employment in a proffesional and stable work environment.

If your a processor, your day starts with a good breakfast, then heading down to the gear room to suit up to start the day management is well educated patient and will help you be successful at your job on a unimaginable professional scale. The hardest part of the job is endurance You work every single day 12 to 16 hours a day (depending on the ship) without a day off but the pay is really good and the experience is like none other. The first storm you sail through and work together as a team gets you that sense of pride for the things you do, by the time you get back and get your boots back on land there isn't anything this world can throw at you. It's truly an unforgettable experience.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
working on board of factory trawler is not comparable to lad work some day smooth sail  some you have meet the fury of ocean and all safe that is why i am still relating about,

12 hour shifts 7 days a week, at sea on board a factory ship. Multiple responsibilities with diverse work staff. Rigorous testing regimen, must be able to think on your feet and stand behind decisions. All decisions have large financial ramifications. Challenging job, a career I have enjoyed for 25 years.
I have learned to lead by example and train people to be proficient and accountable. An important participant of the management team, responsible for not only product quality but also for personnel training in processing at the highest pace with 100% accuracy. 
Financially and personally rewarding.

This is a hard job. Months of being at sea and not seeing family is normal. Pay is great. HR needs adjusting. They constantly circumvent Captains on issues and cause more drama than they fix. They put close friends in undeserved positions on board, and we pretty much let these people get away with poor performance out of concern of being unfairly targeted by HR. My last rep lied to me a lot about a variety of issues and was not kept in check by my Captain or her supervisor. This is really a great company to work for beside that, it's fun and rewarding.

This job requires you to work hard at all times. Take pride in your work. And teaches you leadership skills. I've work as a processor and Combi and loved every minute of it. The only thing that I did not like about this job was being away from home most of the year. But if your single and just out of school this is a great job to put 20k-40k in your bank out. You get to save your money because they don't charge you to eat or sleep on the boat. I would recommend this job to any young man coming out of school! It's a great job to get you started in life!

I am not best at english, but I say that work hard but money good. I do all work. Save all money. I also saw boss on television box. To say again money good. Many good people. Work hard. Work all day. Hard to sleeping. People I work with come from a round world. All day work. No rest. But only have work three month at time. Bad wether. Cold. Wet. Danger. Free eat, house, and shower is the good. You get no rest but overall best than when I was Murmansk at dock all day all year with no bad money and cold wether. Most of job is good.
