Some friends flying there. Last month, 4 captains were terminated during the line training. Earlier this year, management was proud to announce they have fired 10. The way to survive is to quickly adapt to the 'tailored' extremely picky SOPs and get the feed back about these 'Top Gun' trainers. Outside of these few very questionable arrogant trainers attitude, it is becoming more and more an Ultra Low Cost airline, productivity paid, hence very large wages variation. Senior captain, between 85 (0h) and $190k (95h). Good bonus though. 3 years contracts only, Some captains were not renewed for obscured reasons. No education allowance. Good for a mercenary pilot waiting for a real contract. Actually recently only attracts Asia Low Cost airline captains, commuting and making there double salary but cannot afford bringing family in HK.
Very high turnover but still attracts hundreds of applications every month with this expected salary paid at 90h+. Not for everyone indeed. CX jump is blocked by HR now, people leave to EK
