Cathay is not the career gig that it used to be; doesn't matter if you're an expat or local. Management is adversarial, and bent on aggressive cost cutting (see the push towards local contracts). An airline that seeks concessions, in an environment in which it already has trouble attracting talent, should be a warning of things to come.
