employment at certain warm places

Anyone know the day to day life for people who work on cruise ships?
also Club Med? I've had opportunities to do both, but was reluctant
because I heard mixed opinions. First, a seven day work week
(cruises). Also, having to bunk together with several other room mates
(packed like a sardine).
Club Med seems like a cool place to work for, but I have a slight
hidden feeling that tells me they're slave-drivers. The cruises sure
seem like slave drivers ( work seven days a week, several room mates
on the bottom of the ship)?
Would appreciate any info because I'm young and would like to escape
the "rat race" for maybe a couple of years and live/work somewhere
beautiful. Thanks...
