I'm going to list some unbiased facts for anyone considering this contract.
They are telling candidates in the interview it's 3 years to promotion. More like 5. The queue is getting longer every month there is no command courses and cadets are reaching their 5000 hours requirements.
Massive signing bonus = 60k. This is to compensate on your loss of hours the first 3 months due to ground school and training.
42 days annual leave. No leave available this year for 2 guys that just joined. Transfer to next year, 84 days leave. Now they will be unable to reach their productivity target for next year if they take it all = pay loss.
690 hour target for A320. I've been on this fleet for many years and never come close to that!
Best case scenario you take home HK100,000 per month. In reality expect 70-80k.
