Yes.
When I worked as a gate agent at SFO in the late 2000s, there were several Cathay commuters who would just buy full fare airline tickets(I think a lot of Asian airlines have crappy Zed/Offline Nonrev bennies) to BOI, RNO, SLC, ect and were SFO based with CX. Back then, all the ones I met were very happy, and they said a trip was almost always SFO-HKG, off, HKG-???, layover, ???-HKG, off, HKG-SFO(sometimes as a dead head) over the course of 5-6 days, followed by at least that many off.
However, in the last 3 or 4 years I've talked to several Cathay pilots, some of them at length, and none were happy. They say CX is going the way of Emirates, trying to milk pilots for all they can give with fewer days off while punitive actions are common. One of the guys, who I think some other JCers know, was the youngest 777 Captain they ever had and loved the place, talk to him now and it is another story. Sad to see great companies go this way...
For what it is worth, I had a phone interview about their cadet program many years ago. There was no good gouge at the time, just that they would ask random technical questions that vary. After being asked the approximate PSI of 777s tires and the long/lat of HKG, I knew I wasn't getting in haha.
