your rate!
This website is built to furnish an area or billboard for diving pay rates. The goal is to publish all of the dive companies (In the Gulf
of Mexico and any others submitted) pay rates for superintendents, supervisors, divers, and tenders.
This way we (the workers) know who is paying the best rates. I can tell you the dive
companies know how much their competitors are paying their employees. This is an important factor
as to why the Gulf divers are some of the lowest paid divers in the world.
The latest info on dive companies will be posted here on this home page and
updated as often as possible. If you know of a pay rate that is not
correct or is missing or IF THE RATES ARE NOT CORRECT, POST
A COMMENT and it will be updated. Be specific
if it can't be understood it won't be published. Any other information is
also appreciated. IF YOU WANT ME TO PUBLISH RATES FOR OTHER AREAS OF
DIVING EX. INLAND OR OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD YOU MUST POST THEM SO I KNOW WHAT
THEY ARE! PLEASE USE THE BULLETIN BOARD SO EVERYONE CAN SEE THEM IN CASE THEY
CAN'T BE PUBLISHED RIGHT AWAY. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please keep it clean.
The rates posted here are not guaranteed to be correct and
the webmaster assumes no responsibility as to the correct information or rate
for any dive company. Use this information at your own risk. Although I do
check out the posted rates to the best of my ability and my ability is what I
hear, receive through email & post on the board

pay 10% lower than the other companies and make up the difference with benefits
like stock options etc.. |
