Recommended to other Pilots Positive business outlookApproval of managementPros
Relatively new fleet and proper maintenance.
Cons
Training department it’s no more than a cheap circus, just for a starter it’s chief pilot dubious flight experience when he joined as FO is a good starter plus the safety department disregard of many issues when it was more needed, upgrading or becoming an instructor it has nothing to do about seniority but about how much money you are willing to put on and under the table.
Advice to management
Nothing.
Advice to future employees
Do not go unless you want to be used and abused.
Scam airline

Positive business outlookApproval of managementPros
The country is beautiful and cheap
Cons
A lot of corruption and disrespect, punishment culture, lack of support, always flying up to the limit, long duties, schedule changes, no benefits, no salary raises, no bonuses, salary delays, no temporary resident card and no support for family, no more 6x2 rotation only 3x1, ticket benefits were changed to points (20 points in 6 months, points are discounted depending on the flight time, the farther the destination more points are discounted)
Advice to management
They don’t want to hear any advice

Only apply if you’re desperate for a job
The last resort

The cost of living in Vietnam
Cons
Constant fatigue. Out of control local management. The only airline left in Vietnam making money. Narcissistic CEO.
Advice to management
Be proactive enough to hire enough people to cover the roster. The CEO needs to stay outbif FCD and not try to be a part of something he knows nothing about.
Advice to future employees
Many good opportunities around the world besides Vietjet
No benefit, No support

CORRUPTION, Low basic salary, no benefit, no support, bad commuting. Salary sometime delay
Advice to management
Be more supportive and friendly. Remember pilots are doing their job to support the company, they should have something in return
Advice to future employees
Better doing careful research before joining this airlines. Easy to join but difficult to leave. ONCE AGAIN, CORRUPTION is the most concern.
Becareful

No support for families visa, the process of getting work permit is difficult, buroecratic and lenghty, no benefits, no annual leave, commuting only 3x1, corruption, low basic salary.
Advice to management
Be more supportive and friendly,
Advice to future employees
Although it is easy and fast to join, if you wanna leave it's much more difficult as they require you to request it 4 months in advance, they require you to pay a compensation if you leave after a certain period of sim, they will only provide a letter of release and other documents 4 months later.
