Yes there is and it aint Nok.
Search for them, read the journals, all of them that you can get your hands on.
No spoon feeding here You've got to want it hard enough, more than anyone else, to get results.

Happy Landings

if only they had an option for a different payscale and then a schedule with blocks off like Nippon Cargo. They would have a lot people wanting to stay there.

Hi!

Can someone who works there, or someone with at least first hand information give me a clue about what is so bad in Scoot (apart from "mortgage your house and we will provide a type rating for that.") The money seems decent enough compared to other outfits, and SIN, as a person who only spent a few days there, looks a lot more welcoming than Dubai, of most cities in Asia.

I just hear rumors that Scoot is bad, I would just really like to know, why?

seventhreedriver, I have no idea about Dubai or other places but let me tell you that Singapore is anything but a welcome country.
The new policies toward foreigners is appalling, they are making it harder and harder for us to move into here. The only thing they want from you is your tax money so you can subsidize their schools or armed forces.
We are not welcome here, and the moment those pilots bonds are over there is no need for us anymore, they will simply not renew your contract, no reason given and bye bye

"new policies toward foreigners is appalling"

Which new policies? Since when? Details?

"your tax money"

Is 10% tax too much?

"the moment those pilots bonds are over there is no need for us anymore"

Why would the need for pilots disappear because the bonding period is over? Could you explain?
