And that's from someone in the 'Sandpit'!
The salaries,T&Cs in the Middle East now are garbage compared with what they were in the late 60s & 70s, 80s & 90s. I know sport I was there both in Saudi & the UAE. How many folks are now getting USD2.0K PM + USD75 per diem with accom & car thrown in? I was in 1980 to 1984 then 2003 to 2005 (though it was much higher in the noughties than that) all tax free.
The salaries being offered in the UAE are UAED-USD based and are rubbish in relation to the cost of living index.
The guy wants to stay in the UK with his wife, so my advice sticks, I've been at it longer than most, though ain't got the T-shirt, but I've got the stains!
Ma salama Y'all
