Six months of free labor traditionally turns out to be 9 months of 60 hour plus weeks of free labor, with no guarentee they will actually pay or get you through all the classes and dives required 100 minimum dives to become an instructor.

Rainbow Reef is a revolving door of staff and interns some of which should not be caring for divers safety and the owner is laughing all the way to the bank at the expense of the interns that make up a majority of his workforce. The clients are also missing out on much better dive experiences and dive operations in the Keys because they get lured in by great reviews, free guides, and the like.
