      Pros

      An award winning, profitable company. I was offered free accommodation and a all expence paid job. All salaries are 'tax free' in Dubai and it was a great job. Dubai is a nice place to live in as it is the most westernised Arab country in the middle east. Approximately 75% of the population is expatriate. Everyone from every country, all cuisine from all over the world and all brands from all over the world are available in Dubai. Emirates takes care of medical and all administartion needs. Air travel for staff is cheap as they oay approximately 10% (taxes + a small document fee). Get a position with free accommodation, rents and rates paid by the company it is worth accepting a job.

      Cons

      Management is bureaucratic. No unions are allowed. Therefore, bargaining power of the employee is non-existant. Read about accepeted behaviour, especially, during the holy month of fasting and other restrictive social constarints before you accept the job. The low paid staff do not receive the same treatment as high paid staff where working conditions and 'hours' concerned. There is a tendency to employ people from outside instead of promoting within. During most promotions the management in most departments over look the talented/ experienced people in the company and recruit people from outside. Therefore, morale of staff is low. If you are a new comer with low seniority (date of joining) it is very difficult to use staff tickets as most flights are full most of the time.
