Must live in Dubai. Its Vegas on steroids with a dash of Sharia. Its a toss up on where your accommodation will be and who you are roomed with. No control or choice over this matter. an be a luxury high rise in the city or a rat hole prison complex in the middle of the desert with no real access to the outside world. Zero compassion when it comes to bereavement. If someone in your family dies, they will deny you to go home to be with your loved one. Unless its a direct relative (mother, father) then they require a death certificate. Its a travesty. You are treated like a number. The company treats you as a disposable asset which can be easily replaced. Sharia law still stands in Dubai. Don't get raped (you go to jail), don't get pregnant out of wedlock (jail), don't default on any credit card or rent payments (you go to jail). Debtors prison is actually underneath the airport. Minimum rest on Ultra Long range flights (way under industry standards). The crew rest compartment on the A380 in in the back of economy and you constantly hear the toilets flushing and people talking and scratching the walls. All European layovers have hotels at the airport. So even though you're going to "Paris" or "Rome" or "London", you're actually far from the city and stuck by the airport. Very time consuming and expensive to get to the city. You spend all your per diem. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE management, They run by fear tactics and treat the employees as juvenile delinquents, not adults, or humans. Very robotic and tense atmosphere on duty and off duty. Rise and report company culture.
