Company accommodation varies a lot, some really poor ones near construction or in the middle of nowhere but also an occasional nice one such as the pearl. You can request to move out or move accommodation. Waiting times vary up to a few years and seems random.

Command upgrades for Boeing are well above 10 years now for new joiner in Qr , flying over 1000 hours each year many will struggle to do that health wise, you're better off joining as a Dec in Qr if you really want to try it. Dec have easier assessments than internal upgrades and only about 5-10% of the pilots are internal upgraded captains. It's not a good job for First Officer career progression. You'll also likely find yourself landing nearly every return sector in Cavok Doha and with a max wind of 15kts as most captains are too afraid to give outbound flights. Its good for money if that's the only thing you're looking for but I'd suggest to upgrade or stay wherever you are until you need the Dec requirements.
