Royal Caribbean Group scores poorly because it has embraced identity-based hiring and philanthropic practices that prioritize group characteristics over merit, and because it actively funds and advocates for divisive political causes. While its direct political actions are limited, the combination of biased employment practices and heavy advocacy funding pushes its overall rating into the high-risk category.
Royal Caribbean Group, formerly known as Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., is a cruise holding company headquartered in Miami, Florida, United States and incorporated in Liberia.
