CS is for Culinary Specialist. The primary job of a CS is to prepare meals for the crew. As with any rate in the military, there are advantages and disadvantages to each. For the CS rate, a few advantages are that it does not require a high ASVAB test score, so it's easy to get if you want it. The hours a CS works are much less than the hours of other rates, such as Machinist Mate or any wire rate. On the downside, it's harder to advance to the next rank as a CS.
