Pros
Tax free salary. Full medical cover. Childrens private education.
Cons
Engineering still lagging 10 years behind some of the top European airlines. Some senior management and executives have no clue or understanding of the running of the Engineering operations. Very political and dependant on the your senior managers and his ethnicity. You have to be the blue eyed boy to get rewarded. Hardworking productive personel are heavily relied on to ensure smooth operation and given double work to the blue eyec or non productive staff. Human factors totally in disregard. The local senior executive is easily swayed by his subordinates and can make life a misery for you. Covid redundancies in 2020 was based on demographics and if the face fits. Not on skills, qualifications and experience. 20 plus years of productive employment and no gratitude shown whatsoever. The company and the country is purely a means. Means to earn good salary and provide good living and education for the children. But you have to be strong willed and with perseverance. Otherwise the department can run you down and out.
