Stressful
Indian Navy is much more better than Coast Guard. Try do join Indian Navy instead of Coast Guard. Working culture of Coast Guard is very stressful than Navy and salary is also about 25℅ less than Navy,

Poor family life, stressful but with good salary and other benefits
Poor family life, stressful but with good salary and other benefits. Officers posts are comparatively better. Secured future with lot of sea life. Don't expect much and keep working. Growth is time scale and most of the time it's not on the basis of merit but on the basis of caste. Reserved category get priority in promotion.
